I see boats all the time without tie down straps in the rear here in FL.
I guess some people just don't know they should have them. I once saw

I was saw a relatively large, for a trailer boat, sitting in the middle of
an intersection in downtown Miami. I don't know the specifics, but
someone had a Big Ouch Day.
