Do we need to put the license number on the buoys this year? If so is there a size requirement for that?

I bet you have been waiting months to write this post. Good one.

Not this year. My guess is size requirements will be similar to D-crab regs. Can't find a size for that either though.

Can anyone tell me if navigation lights are required on a kayak at night?

My gut says not required but you definitely want to be plenty visible. Lots of boats out especially tonight. More than a few people drinking while waiting too. Stay safe!

The Sherrif stopped us one morning leaving DP and laid down the law. A 360deg light and a spotlight you can shine at others. One of us didnt have their headlamp (spot) and but we all had 360s. He let us go as it was going to be gray soon. But he made sure we knew it was his graciousness allowing us to procede w/o the spot.

When you say "us" I am guessing a group of kayakers?

Zed · 09-30-2016, 06:04 PM

3 of "us" yes.

I'm willing to bet that they didn't stop you because of the regulations, it had more to do with the fact that they know what happens every year at the start of lobster season. It's kind of like those DUI checkpoints that they put up after every Superbowl, they know people will be drinking and driving so what better way to prevent DUI accidents than to stop them in their tracks

Be safe out there, don't become a statistic.

And I had only just pounded my first OldE too. I deserve a break it was 0400. I couldnt be that drunk.

This was a month or so ago. And the launch was wfo w tuna mad anglers so I guess he can be a cop if he wants to.
