@@LivelysReport While the Fourth Amendment may protect the citizen, law abiding or not, from the threat of an “unwarranted” search, that protection ceases once the citizen is on a vessel. The Coast Guard has sweeping authority to board any vessel (subject to the jurisdiction of the United States) at any time, any place. It does not require a warrant. It does not require probable cause. Boardings need not be based on a suspicion that a violation already exists aboard the vessel. Their purpose is to prevent violations and the courts have upheld this authority. Also, the Coast Guard has full legal law enforcement power on any land under the control of the United States, as needed to complete any mission. 14 USC 89 has its roots in the Revenue Service Act of 1790 which provided “all collectors, naval officers, surveyors, inspectors and the officers of the revenue cutters . . . to go on board ships in any part of the United States . . . for the purposes of demanding manifests . . . examining and searching the said ships, and the officers shall have free access to the cabin and every other part of the vessel . . .” This statute was passed by the first Congress, the same Congress that enacted the Bill of Rights, including the Fourth Amendment with its guarantees for citizens to be secure against unreasonable searches and seizures. By enacting the Revenue Service Act, the first Congress showed unequivocally that the Coast Guard’s significant law enforcement authorities to board and search a U.S. flag vessel anywhere in the world, as well as vessels intending to call on U.S. ports, were consistent with the Fourth Amendment. U.S. Courts over the last 200 years have consistently validated the right of the Coast Guard to board and inspect vessels, probable cause or not. The FWC is not the CG. However, they have greater power than mere land officers. www.uslawshield.com/fwc-officers-florida-need-know

As many others have commented. No registration markings, this automatically allowed the FWC to stop and question. Similar analogy is a car driving down the road with no license plates. In the video, You see the one FWC cop board the vessel and take a picture of the HIN - then left the private boat. Subsequently the FWC looks to have conducted a safety check and based on the video - the citizen did not look to have any on hand. The FWC then looked to ask the citizen to open certain compartments and observed from the FWC vessel. Based on the transom water line markings, the vessel has been in the water for a period of time. The private boater somewhat opened the door to the stop by having no visible registration markings.

@rebelwolves2 жыл бұрын
If a non-US flagged vessel is operation in US Territorial waters, then the Coast Guard can board them without permission of the host country. (If you make the decision to enter territorial waters, you make the decision to give up this protection) I may be mistaken, but I think this also goes for Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs). I know it goes for any vessel engaged in agriculture in the EEZ, but I think it also goes for any vessel transiting EEZs (I could be wrong on the only transiting part, I'm not an expert here) There is an interesting memo from a few years back (1997), that addressed the ability of the Coast Guard to board foreign flagged vessels on the high seas without permission of the host country if the vessel is suspected of violation certain laws. (I imagine piracy and drug smuggling are included) Edit: I looked up the date of that memo.

This number is molded or otherwise permanently affixed on the starboard most aft stern transom area. This is exactly where the officer looked.

They would be pulling most of the boats going through if they where to pull everyone that’s breaking the law we constantly see overloaded and unsafe boats and boaters!

Southern border wide open, thousands of unknown people flooding into the country daily and soon to be placed on public assistance while we ticket a guy and his lady friend out for a day on the water. 👍🏻

I wanna know who has jurisdiction on the Miami river? A- Miami marine police B- U.S. Coast guard C- F.W.C. D- Miami-Dade county police E. Any marina law enforcement passing by(example: Miami beach, Indian Creek, U.S. customs etc)

Good question
@arod43902 жыл бұрын
FWC has jurisdiction in the whole state of Florida and they also have the power to enforce federal laws and regulations so for sure FWC has jurisdiction on the Miami river.

In Canada you only need life jackets with you. You don't have to be wearing it. 6 people on a boat you need 6 life jackets. Anchor, tow rope(floating) whistle or horn. Lights if boating at night!

FWC can definitely board your boat if you have fishing equipment or they saw you attempting to take some form of Wildlife like a fish or a plant like seaweed from the Waters of their state. They may also search every cabinet in your boat that could hold a fish.

We don’t know why the stop, but I rather doubt it was to just bust a moment, rather to do a spot check. Kind of what they are supposed to do.
