This bill amends the current law regarding vessel registration exemptions by reducing the exemption period for vessels registered in another state or country from 30 consecutive days to 10 consecutive days. Specifically, it modifies RSA 270-E:4, II, changing the language from 30 to 10. The bill is set to take effect 60 days after its passage. The fiscal impact of this bill is indeterminable, as it may lead to an increase in boat registrations for vessels operating in New Hampshire for more than 10 days. The Department of Safety has not provided estimates on the potential increase in registrations or the corresponding revenue impact on various state funds. Additionally, the bill may affect the judicial and correctional systems due to changes in penalties associated with violations of the registration requirements.
