What do I need to launch a boat in Ontario?
A pleasure craft with a motor of 10 hp (7.5 kW) or more needs a Pleasure Craft Licence, with the licence number displayed on both sides of the bow in characters at least 75 mm tall. You also need the required safety equipment on board. Read the launch-law checklist before you tow.
