It is considered a vessel( boat ).
One can use a vehicle to drive around Lake Michigan, an airplane, or a boat.
In Michigan, you do not need a boat license specifically for operating a vessel with a trolling motor. However, if the boat is powered by a motor, including a trolling motor, and is over 16 feet in length, the operator must have a valid boating safety certificate. It's also important to adhere to any local regulations that may apply.
