Fines for Boating w/out a license?

Boat Guy64,

What you just described is the classic MP move to invoke the 150 foot violation. I see them do this all day especially around no wake zones. They force you down to headway speed but encroach the 150' before your boat can realistically slow down. Appears they use this as a method to conduct their routine vessel inpection after stopping someone to look for a more tangible violation.
