I don't see the fuss. The USCG sends me a letter, I sign it and send it back.. Lately with a check.
Wifey B: What? That's dark ages. Letter? Sign it? Check? Does not compute.
We go online, fill out the form on line, submit payment of $26 online (we do credit card but they also do ACH). Oh and renewals they've gotten like super fast on. They're on August 14 now so only 9 days. New recreational about 3 months now.
I use to use stamps and mail and even wrote checks. I haven't done either of those in a long long long time. I wonder if my niece, Aurora, will ever even know what those things are.
