June 2023- New Maine law requiring boats be drained before
launching:
https://www.maine.gov/ifw/fish-wildlife/fisheries/aquatic-invasive-species.html
-
Prior to entering a water body and when preparing to leave launch sites, boaters are required to remove or open any
devices designed for routine removal/opening (for example, hull drain plugs,
bailers, live wells, ballast tanks) to encourage draining of areas containing
water (excluding live bait containers). This must be done in a way that does not
allow drained water to enter any inland water of the state.
