This bill proposes the repeal of West Virginia Code § 61-3-36, which currently makes it an offense to anchor or beach shanty boats on the lands of another without permission. The legislation aims to eliminate the penalties associated with this action, effectively removing the legal restrictions that govern the anchoring or beaching of shanty boats on private property.

By repealing this section of the law, the bill seeks to provide greater freedom for individuals using shanty boats, potentially reducing legal conflicts related to property rights and boating activities. The removal of this provision indicates a shift in the legislative approach to managing the use of waterways and adjacent lands in West Virginia.
