The Canadian Register of Small Commercial Vessels includes registration information about small non-pleasure vessels powered by an engine of 10 horsepower (7.5 kW) or more and commercial river rafts. Registration for small non-pleasure human-powered vessels (such as canoes or kayaks), or small sailing vessels and small power-driven vessels with propulsion motors less than 10 horsepower (7.5 kW) is not required, however owners have the option to register voluntarily. Vessel owners or operators must still comply with construction, safety, and pollution requirements set out in the Canada Shipping Act, 2001.
