Before launching your boat, make sure it’s legal
In Oregon, boaters must
have a certificate of title, cer-
tificate of number, and valida-
tion stickers to operate a motor-
boat of any length, or sailboat
longer than 12 feet, legally on
public waterways.
This includes boats that are
documented with a recreational
endorsement by the U.S. Coast
Guard and principally used or
moored in Oregon.
Documented boats that have
a recreational endorsement do
not have an Oregon certificate
of title and do not need to dis-
play an OR number, but are
required to register and display
a current validation sticker on
both sides of the aftermost part
of the hull in the upper, square
foot, below the deck line.
All other recreational boats
moored in Oregon are required
to have current validation stick-
er.
Friends of Honeyman Park
membership drive to begin
The Friends of Honeyman
State Park is a nonprofit group
of citizens who support the
park in its educational and
interpretive pursuits.
This includes hosting, spon-
soring or volunteering for
events and programs.
Honeyman State Park
brings more than a million vis-
itors to the area each year.
During the past year, the
Friends of Honeyman have
collaborated with the Oregon
Parks
and
Recreation
Department to engage in plant-
ing and clean-up projects, edu-
cational field trips for stu-
dents, “Art in the Park,”
“Earth Day,” and “Awakening
Peace” events.
Future potential projects
include an October “Haunted
Hayride” and a December
“Winter Wonderland” light
display.
During the month of June,
the Friends of Honeyman is
engaged in a membership
campaign to boost participa-
tion and expand activities.
Annual membership dues
are $10 per household.
Those wanting to become a
member can call 541-590-
0779 or attend the meeting on
Saturday, June 18, at 12:30
p.m., at the Ranger Station
Office.
The certificate of number,
commonly called the “registra-
tion card,” is a pocket-sized
card that must be on board and
available for inspection by an
enforcement officer whenever
the boat is being operated.
The registration number is
specific to the boat and is
issued with the title and regis-
tration. The registration num-
ber (OR#) and validation stick-
er (decal) must be displayed on
the starboard and port side bow
of the boat.
Once a number is issued, it
can be painted, applied as a
decal sticker, or otherwise
affixed to the bow and placed
above the water line so it can be
read easily.
The validation sticker (decal
-good for two calendar years)
must be affixed on each side of
the boat and placed in line. The
sticker on the port side is after
the OR number and on the star-
board side, before the OR num-
ber (see illustration).
The decal expires on Dec. 31
of the year indicated on the
sticker.
The certificate of title, cer-
tificate of number and valida-
tion stickers (decals) can be
obtained by completing an
application and submitting the
proper fee with documentation
to the Oregon State Marine
Board.
Failure to have a certificate
of registration for documented
vessels is a B violation and a
$260 fine. Failure for a boat
operator to carry a certificate of
number is a D violation and a
$$110 fine.

ments of boating, visit www.

Sixth annual Siuslaw Open set for September
This year the grand prize at
the Siuslaw Open is a brand
new Ford F150 truck. “All that
is necessary is to hit a hole-in-
one on the designated hole,”
said David Wiegan, tournament
co-chair and former golfer.
“First, get the distance cor-
rect, then hit it straight. It’s a
piece of cake — Well, almost,”
said Wegan.
Johnston Motors is once
again the hole-in-one contest
sponsor at the sixth Annual
Siuslaw Open.
This year, the event will be
held at Ocean Dunes on
Saturday, Sept. 10, with regis-
tration starting at 9 a.m.
Also new this year is a
$5,000 putting contest. One
entrant will be selected at ran-
dom and will have one try to
sink a 60 foot putt. “This one is
a lot shorter, and is even easi-
er,” Wiegan said.
The tournament is one of the
main fundraisers for Siuslaw
Outreach Services. Last year
netted more than $7,000 for th
Splash.
Funds raised support all SOS
programs, including advocacy
for victims of domestic/sexual
violence, low-income families,
emergency assistance and basic
needs for homeless persons.
The entry fee is $89 per
player or $320 per team, and
this year there is an early regis-
tration discount.
The fee will be $79 per play-
er or $290 per team if received
by Aug. 26.
Dinner will follow golf and
prizes will include golf pack-
ages, gift certificates at Maple

Registration for Cape Mountain run now open
Registration is now open for
the 2016 Cape Mountain 10-
mile and 4-mile trail runs to be
held June 11.
First held in 2003, the event
has become a favorite for trail
runners from around Oregon,
drawing nearly 100 partici-
pants annually.
Contestants of all levels are
welcome, including hikers.
This unique trail run winds
its way through the beautiful
old-growth forests and mead-
ows that are the result of a
1930s fire, creek crossings,
and lovely ocean overlooks.
The race takes place on the
USFS Coast Horse Trails locat-
ed north of Florence, starting
and finishing at the Horse
Creek Campground.
The two events cover trails
in the Cape Mountain, Nelson
Ridge and Berry Creek areas.

My name is Isadora and I’ll be
the fi rst kitty to greet you when
you enter the upstairs catroom.
If you come in and brush me, I’ll
be your best friend forever. I don’t
particularly like being picked up;
just sit down and I will come to you.
Do you think you could give me lots
of love? Why don’t you come to the
shelter and visit me?
