Boat, ATV & Snowmobile Registrations
Boat Registrations
Boat registrations expire December 31st. New boats and renewals can be done at the town office. There is a state mandated “Milfoil Sticker” for all boats that are launched in Maine lakes and streams. It is now a part of the yearly sticker issued to all boats registered in Maine. This is to help defray the cost of eradicating milfoil from lakes and streams that may have come into Maine on boats from other states.

If a boat is used in salt water only, a milfoil sticker is not needed. The milfoil fee for non-residents is $20

ATV Registrations
ATV registrations expire June 30th. Renewals can be done at the town office or online.

Snowmobile Registrations
Snowmobile registrations expire June 30th. Renewals can be done at the town office or online.
