Ironbender: Unlike most folks "I" have actually written citations to both sea plane operators and boat operators.
As have I. 😉
I’ve also responded to and performed “rescues” on several float plane accidents none of which were anyone but the pilot’s fault.
I am curious about the LEO situation giving authority for such broad actions.
We were cross trained by the USCG and could enforce the same laws they enforced. We could also search a vessel under the rules of the USCG without obtaining a warrant. Basically we were “empowered” with the same enforcement abilities as the USCG.
