Motorboats use gasoline and NH has a very low state gas tax so maybe the legislature could raise the gas tax by ten cents and put the money to work into the roads, bridges, boat launch ramps, and other state public infer-structure.

Instead of just putting up a sign like 'frost heaves ahead' maybe the state will do more infer-structure maintenance and upgrades like the super Downing's-Alton Bay launch ramp.

Just like buying a car or a boat, it takes money to have good infer-structure, and the current NH gas tax is just not getting it done enough.

Do you really want to be backing your million dollar yacht down a shaky-breaky boat launch ramp that swings and sways with each incoming boat wake or slight breeze ...... probably knot! If people cannot afford a ten cent state gasoline tax increase, they can always get out and walk, or ride a bicycle, which would probably do them some good, besides.
