This year I will pay $48.50 in registrations and $471.36 in boat fees. For about 350 square feet of "property" on the lake. That's about $1.48 a square foot.

A 10,000 square foot lot (1/4 acre) would have to pay $14,800 a year in taxes to be the same rate.

I also pay taxes of over $1000 on my condo boat slip. Plus another $600 for condo fees, much of which goes to pay the town taxes on the association land and town fees for the sewer hook-up for the boat pump-out.

I can't send children to school, I can't claim residence, I don't get any other services. I can't anchor my lake "property" on the lake at night.

I don't think I'm taking unfair advantage.
