I think you got that backwards. MA is raping the out of state charters at $625 of an out of state fee. |

Nothing wrong in my book with trying to protect local small businessmen. Guys who live in RI and trailer their boats here don't pay Mass excise taxes, and if they hit a RI gas station to fill their tanks, they don't pay a Mass fuel tax.
Chartering is a tough way to earn a living, and there's enough local competition to start with. |
Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

Aside from the ignorance of that statement, it was not what I was writing about. Sandman was complaining that RI raised fees when the thread and article is about MA.
Small minded parochialism and protectionism does not benefit anyone in the long run. |

Yeah, they've really gotten out of hand with those freshwater licenses. |
