There is a guy there that routinely hassles transiting boaters with no
FL registration. Never mind that you can pass through FL without FL
numbers, he will give you a ticket anyway. Here are some comments and
people to write if this concerns you.

Did you have out of state ID? If you dropped a Florida DL on him I can
see his point.
In the end all of this licensing and registration is about tax money.


Just drop a "Semper Fi" on this guy to convert him to putty.....he's
obviously ex-jarhead.
But that's sort of an oxymoron, since once a jarhead always a jarhead.


More likely a former Navy or Coastie type.

Jarheads usually become state troopers. :)
