[quote dtayboyz]Because they don't think they can and the kayak dudes are pretty stoned. People need to be educated and licensed regardless of the size of the craft.[/quote]
Pretty sure the majority KNOW they can. Size of boat is not an issue, never has and never will be. Invasive species don't discriminate.
I know a couple people with 24' boats that try to sneak by so not the size that counts in this case[

"Recreating from PWCs should offer some leeway--and they do. No registration, low maintenance and easy to transport. Tell me, do I really need a license in order to operate a float tube?"
License a tube...no, unless you put a motor on it. It is has seams, or any kind of texture like cloth, it can transport. Anything short of a glass smooth surface that you can wash clean can transport. Shoe laces, lures/flies.
But so can a good wind, birds, etc. But we being the intelligent species must use common sense where we can. Not directed at anyone in particular[
