Thread: What's the minimum requirement...

  1. #1

    For a coast guard inspection...
    All I can think of is:
    Fire extinguisher
    Throw cushions
    Flares - Flare Gun
    Air Horn
    Life jackets
    Is there anything else??
    Also if the engine compartment has a halon system, is an extinguisher still required?
    Thought this would be a good reminder for everyone since it sounds like a crack down in havi town this weekend.

    Are we talking inland waters? The are different depending where you operate your vessel.

    I think you need something to paddle with other than your hands

    Cooler full of beer.
    Atleast a 50/50 ratio on board, but never a sausage fest..

    A drivers license and current registration is always good.

    You definitely need an onboard fire extinguisher (additional from the halon) inside of the boat. Boats over 25' are required to have two. I believe on boats larger than 25' the halon counts as one.
    Thowable cushion
    USCGA Approved life jacket
    Nose making device (air horn, whistle)
    Flare gun (required in some cases, but definitely recommended)
    Paddle
    Registration
    Recommended is First Aid kit.
    I belive there is more, but not sure

    Coast guard approved PFD's for EVERY passenger on board is the actual requirement. :wink:
    Other than that, you pretty much covered it.

    Hmmm how about a legal drivers license, proof of insurrance and the ability to speak and understand the ENGLISH language. The 12pack is optional!
