Technically, you are right, however, exactly how much revenue does a kayak generate? Those TN numbers on the side of my boat cost money, and I have yet to see any numbers/sticker on the side of a kayak.
It's the same situation around Radnor Lake. Those walkers/joggers are downright indignant about you driving through the area. The fact is, those damn tennis shoes they are wearing have never contributed one red cent toward road construction. On the other hand, FET on tires and motor fuel taxes are what build roads.
Ramp etiquette is not limited to power boats. It doesn't matter if you are launching a washtub or a cruiser, get it in the water and get out of my way. And...if you are launching from dusk to dark, please turn your headlights off, my pet peeve revealed.
