Tennessee boaters have the month of June to renew their boat registration before the first fee increase in 12 years goes into effect on July 1, according a report from the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency.

The current fee for a 16-foot boat and under is $13 for one year, $24 for two, and $35 for three. The new fees will be $15, $28, and $41, respectively. Boats with a length over 16-feet to 26-feet will increase from $25 to $29 for a year.

The increase is pending approval by the Government Operations Committee of the Tennessee General Assembly, the TWRA said.

Canoes, kayaks, paddleboards, and rafts are not required to be registered. Boat registration can be made by mail or online at all hours at GoOutdoorsTennessee.com.
