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.

Err...Jon, that wasn't the question


Seems like it was... if you're boarded they can seach the boat. Seems like
that includes any enclosed living space aboard her.
