    I think it is happening everywhere. This year for the first time we had govt regs in Mexico. There it was not a big deal, but the military checked you in and out each day. Our captain had an issue after we left. There was no one at the dock checking boats out early in the AM, but he got in a lot of trouble in the afternoon because he had not signed out for the day. I saw this as a good thing... A good way to stop drugs from coming in on a boat.

    Kinda like gun control, punish the law abiding, miss the criminals.[:(]

    See it that way if you must, but when all was found to be legit they cut him loose.

    Next is State salt water lic. Then they start with more silly rules and regs till it becomes like hunting and fresh water fishing.
    You need a lawyer to explain it all.
