Picture perfect weather and perfect teamwork characterized Boats In day, 2015. Congratulations all around!
  
  
All Hands! Boats In on Saturday
Boats go in this Saturday! The festivities start at 6:00am with a hot breakfast in the clubhouse. Lunch will also be served later in the day. There is a small chance that a few boats could be lifted in late Friday afternoon, depending on the arrival time of the crane. If you are one of the first in line, contact Craig for an update.
Stay safe! Fingers crossed for good weather and healthy batteries. Plugs in!
Keep Your Boat Registration Updated
The IDNR reminds boat owners in Illinois to check their current three-year boat registration/decal and renew their registration if it expires on June 30, 2015. Renewing watercraft registration can be done online through the IDNR website at www.dnr.illinois.gov or by phone by calling 1-866-867-3542. To renew registration, have available the watercraft’s Illinois registration number, the first six characters of the watercraft’s hull ID number, the first three letters of the registered owner’s last name, and a credit card. For details on Illinois watercraft registration requirements and three-year boat registration fees, check the IDNR website at www.dnr.illinois.gov/recreation/boating. Note: You won’t get a reminder or notice from the state before your registration expires!
Non-motorized watercraft, including canoes, kayaks, paddle boats, or sail boards in Illinois, are no longer required to be titled/registered in Illinois, unless the vessels have a motor or sail. Non-motorized watercraft owners are required to purchase an Illinois Water Usage Stamp for $6.00 per calendar year (for each of their first three vessels, and $3.00 each for any additional vessels). An agent fee of $0.50 is charged per vessel.  The 2015 Illinois Water Usage Stamp is valid through December 31, 2015. Water Usage Stamps are available over-the-counter from IDNR license and permit vendors. Find a vendor through the IDNR website at http://www.dnr.illinois.gov/LPR/Pages/LicensePermitVendors.aspx
Stickers for kayaks or canoes are available at Farm & Fleet or Circle K in Ottawa.
