Another Waste Of Taxpayer Money

[niceguyeddie]

There is no way in hell I'm putting another sticker on my boat. I usually keep my registration stickers in the glove box. If they say anything I just tell them I just had it waxed and I was afraid it wouldn't stick.

My buddy's biz partner is a SB Sheriff reserve and works the patrol boat on Havasu in the summer. We were drinking beers in the channel last summer and watching boats go buy. He said it is so easy for them to find a reason to pull over a boat and pointed out things on the next ten boats that passed by. I was blown away!

I say leave the ugly sticker off. If they want to pull you over, they'll find a reason.

Exactly. I don't drink on my boat so I'm not scared of getting stopped. You can do everything legal and they are still allowed to do safety inspections.

Yep. I also don't bring out friends that like to get drunk and rowdy. I don't need the police attention or headache.

My last big trip to Havasu was 7 or 8 years ago, I was beached on the channel drinking a beer when I walked up shore and a cop told me to take one more step and I was going to jail. He told me there was an invisible line for having alcohol. So I turned around and hit the water, I took 4 steps in the water and told me the same shit, 1 more step in the water and I was going to jail. Yep, another invisible line, so I packed up that night and went to Parker. In the cops defense, that was the summer when they put out the article in Hot Boat that they were going to crack down on any disruptive behavier after the little girl was killed in her moms arms in the Gorge. They were pulling people over left and right for nothing. Well It worked for me, I don't drink if I'm gonna drive the boat but that was clear message they could care less if I was driving or not. PARKER BABY

Maybe they did this for a while but not now. You can drink in the water and walking down the sidewalk. No problems unless your hammered.

That's good news, it was insane but like I said. They put out the word they were gonna hit it hard that Holiday.

Does anyone know if it is going to be a requirement to have that mussel sticker on the boat, next to your tags? I've seen a lot of people posting on FB asking the question with the picture of the ugly green/red sticker.

Just got mine in the mail last week. Looks like it is a requirement. Thinking if you don't have it, it gives the San B sheriff another reason to pull you over. Don't understand why they did not combine the 2 into 1 sticker.

The instructions are on the back of the sticker, same as the registration sticker. They say "Affix one sticker to each side of the vessel next to, and in line with the CF number and registration sticker, as illustrated below"
