Dave, get with the program. I originally posted that the owner must be a US
citizen and posted the link to the VDC.

Jaxie, however, is claiming that there must be a citizen on board at all times.
He said:

"non citizens are not even allowed to use documented boats unless a citizen is
aboard"

Are you claiming that jaxie is correct on this?

That's not true. Please produce a reference to such a regulation.

Well, the Coast Guard may of course be full of it, but here's what their
website says:

"The basic requirements for documentation are to demonstrate ownership of
the vessel, _U.S. citizenship_, and eligibility for the endorsement sought."
(emphasis supplied)

See http://www.uscg.mil/hq/g-m/vdoc/faq.htm#02

I haven't bothered to check U.S.C or C.F.R., but feel free if you think
they're wrong.
