Mother hen here.
Last year, Lake County started a boat inspection program for "invasive mussels". In '08 there was no charge for this inspection, but when I went to their website tonight ( http://www.co.lake.ca.us/Government/Directory/Water_Resources/Mussel_Prevention.htm ) I found out that there is a $10 charge this year.
It's pretty simple, just make sure that your bilge is dry, and livewell empty and you don't have any attached to the hull--kinda goes w/o saying, but cluck cluck.
For the ones coming over Hwy 20, Limit Out in Clearlake Oaks is a location for inspection, on the south side of hwy 20, it's a small shop and easy to miss,easy parking. Ones coming up 101, the easiest place would be Tackle It (they have a website) right on Main Street (parking sucks) in Lakeport or Clearlake Outdoors at the end of Main St at the end of town. Clearlake outdoors has easier parking.
I've got to get mine inspected again for our trip over Jan 12-16.
I just remembered this and wanted to give everyone a heads up on the inspection requirement.
