This info is correct.
What was our $10 charter Permit on our DMF state boat permit is now a separate permit costing $65, but it makes no mention of it as a salt water fishing lic.
I and a lot of other guys thought they just raised the charter permit fee from $10 to $65 (just like they raise everything other fee in this state)
Got a Stellwagen charter boat association meeting tomorrow night, spoke with the secretary last week and they plan to go over this and explain it in detail.
I'll pass along that info later in the week.

I did grab some of the recreational permit forms as we also surf fish so we will be covered either way.
Bottom of the rec saltwater license form say you can get it online at
