A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Keelage (keel-ij) is a historical term that refers to the right of demanding payment of a toll by a ship entering or anchoring in a harbor. It can also refer to the toll that is paid.

1. In the 18th century, the port authorities in Boston charged keelage to all ships that entered the harbor. The amount of keelage depended on the size of the ship and the duration of its stay.

2. The keelage for a small fishing boat was only a few shillings, but for a large merchant vessel, it could be several pounds.

It was a way for the authorities to generate revenue and to ensure that the harbor facilities were well-maintained. The amount of keelage charged depended on the size and type of the ship, as well as the duration of its stay.

I do not hunt anymore but their mistake would of caused me to miss the entire season. If it wasn't so hard to get left handed ARs I would of gone elsewhere
