PROMOTE BOATING SAFETY
The Coast Guard requests your cooperation in promoting the safety of life and property on the nation's waterways. By observing the prescribed laws and regulations and by following safe boating practices, you can help reduce the number of lives lost or injuries sustained and prevent damage to property.
PURPOSE OF BOARDING
The Coast Guard is the primary maritime law enforcement and safety agency of the United States. Under statutory authority Coast Guard boarding officers may at any time go onboard vessels subject to the jurisdiction of the United States and make inquiries, examine ship's papers, and inspect, examine and search the vessel for the detection, prevention, and suppression of violation of U.S. Laws. The Coast Guard is also authorized to make seizures and arrests and use only that force which is reasonably necessary under the circumstances to compel compliance while conducting boardings.
The Coast Guard enforces regulations related to recreational boating safety, boating while intoxicated, pollution prevention, vessel documentation and registration and many other areas including criminal laws such as possession and distribution of illegal drugs, illegal weapons, stolen boats, alien smuggling as well as Customs laws. Additionally, the Coast Guard checks for compliance with applicable U.S. Fisheries regulations and agreements. The Coast Guard accomplishes this through an active boarding policy in which boarding teams follow established procedures for going onboard U.S. and foreign vessels subject to U.S. jurisdiction to conduct inspections. ADDITIONAL INFORMAITON
Boaters who have questions, comments or feedback concerning Coast Guard law enforcement boardings may go to the Boating Safety Resource Center website: http://www.uscgboating.org/
