A lawyer friend told me that the Coast Guard or any police agency must
obtain a search warrant to search any" enclosed living spaces" aboard
a vessel. Is this true? Thanks,

Nope... neither the local police nor the CG need a warrant to board you.

Wrong, a local yokle can not board you without a warrent. A federal
marshal can, and so can the USCG.
