A boat liciense....is someone pulling your leg? Is this similar to a push bike licience or a licience to breath?

looks like i know more about it than you do then
yes you need to pay a licence fee to fish from a boat on the river the licence will not cover the use of the boat on the norfolk broads the fee payable will depend on the size of the boat and size of the outboard if one is fitted
for a 10ft boat with electric out board is about £17 for that you can only use the boat on the stour if you pay rounderbout £56 you can the use the boat on alot more rivers
Hope this has helped to improove your knoledge

What you will need is a river licence, this will cover you for use on inland waterways, you do not as far as I am aware need a licence to use a boat at sea, unless you are a commercial opperation.

This tax / licence is issued by the authority whos waters you will be sailing on, ie The Broads Authority. When I last had a boat on the Broads the tax was circa £60, that was about 8 years ago, so it most probably about £100 now.

The only licence you to fish from a boat is your rod licence, unless you are fishing specific club controlled waters under day ticket rights.

If you are hiring a boat then this tax has already been paid for by the boat yard owners.
