What an idiot, placarding that item with traveling plates. They should convey that device to the nearest body of water. While part of the device is in contact with the water, they can re-placard it as a maritime vessel. Such vessels are not limited to non-commercial use, and, most importantly, may be portaged overland while remaining a maritime vessel.
Hahahaha yeah, great take. Of course a portage typically requires picking up the device and carrying it to the next body of water ... perhaps using a trolley and horses, which are exempt from road laws, and most... roads
I used to portage my canoe on a small trailer behind my bike. I would then load the bike and trailer into the canoe, and float downriver. When I pull that so-loaded canoe out of the water, does it stop being a maritime vessel?
This Buick-manufactured device could be considered a maritime vessel that just so happens to be carrying the mechanisms necessary for self-portage. And I'd be happy to sell you the placards needed for that.
Do you have a bike trailer big enough to load it into as well?
