Lifejacket
QUESTION for the board members.
Today I did a nice paddle, through the Intercoastal, out the inlet and along the beach.
When I reached past 17st Causeway Bridge there was a Police boat inspecting passerby's. When I go closer, the officer summoned me to him. When I was close he told me that you have to have a lifejacket and a whistle with you. Not necessarily wearing it but at least on the board with you.
Is a board leash also is required these days ?
Anyone familiar with this legislation ? When did this happen ?
Anyhow, something more to carry around I guess...
