I came across a post on another list in which a USCG officer was quoted as
saying that Boating Under the Influence regulations are enforceable on
anchored and moored vessels. The official cited the possibility that the
operator may be called upon to operate the anchored vessel and was thus
committing a safety violation. I can find nothing on the Internet to
support this interpretation, and suspect there _is_ nothing to support it.
The official seemed to be playing fast and loose with the definition of
"underway."

Comments?

I've certainly read of numerous cases where someone was arrested for
driving under the influence when found sleeping in a parked car.
