He shouted over to me "Their whole body must be in the boat while underway! That's an $85 [or maybe $65] ticket!"

While I have enough sense to know not to have them hang over the bow, I never considered their arm being over the side an issue.

Now I know.

I have been educated but not cited which works for me!
Good to know I wasnt singled out, even though I was ticketed,,,
