Any government at any time for any reason can "sieze" your vessel, and
there
won't be much you can do about it at the time of siezure. You can, of
course, then launch a legal battle to have your rightful property returned
to you, but governments, being evil by nature, don't much care whether or
not your rights are being violated. And it won't matter whether your boat
is
federally documented or state registered.
In reality, does this happen often? Only if you make yourself a target.
Moral: Keep a low profile at all times, but not so low that the powers
that be
start wondering what you are hiding.
And never, but never, lock yourself into your home and tell the world to
leave you alone.
