Why did king george iii strictly enforce the navigation acts

Britain wanted the colonies to pay for the losses it had in the French and Indian war.

Explanation:

The purpose of the Navigational Act was to reduce the power of the colonies.  England attempted to regulate colonial trade by issuing the Navigation Acts in 1712, which include series of law to control the shipping trade between the two countries Britain and colonies in America. The law was that the goods that were going from the foreign countries to colonies must get through the English ports, where customs charges could be collected.
