One of our recent Wahoo fishing and bottom fishing videos! th-cam.com/video/EZ9N-Ue-3y0/w-d-xo.html
I have been a commercial fisherman for 30 years.. thay are doing a great job if you have all your stuff together.. just hide your weed
THIS IS SOMETHING NORMAL TO EXPECT WHEN YOU GO FISHING ON A NICE DAY, BUT UNUSUAL WHEN YOU ARE SINKING...
So they were just checking flares, fire extinguisher, life vests, registration, horn, weapons ect..
believe it or not, rules apply in MN lakes too! you have next to NO rights on the water.
Yea basically just trying to write him a ticket
Tampatec yes, basically just making sure everyone has what they're supposed to have while being on the water
@tampatec *etc.

If you ever go on a cruise out of SF Bay, the Coast Guard gives the ship an escort (2 Coast Guard boats), with gunners on the bow. Sometimes they give us a show and start hot dogging their boats showing us off under the Golden Gate Bridge. I have a lot of respect for our military. Makes me want to book a cruise just to see the Coast Guard escorts. You should see them get after the wind surfers who look like they want to get close to the ship.
Those Guys were OK , I realize its a bit of a hassle , but they are the same men who will save your life too! I thought this was a great video and thanks for sharing !
J...
99% hassling, 1% life saving
they are not ok, i don't want them on my boat.
@@CuriosityPlease-vz1gk Remember that when your boat is taking on water....
Interesting how they kept the firearm on the floor. When in the State of Florida it is legal to open carry a firearm while Fishing, Hunting or Camping.
Fed law=/=state law
BROOMTAIL it was kept there strictly for the officers safety...nothing else.
Because all officers think the public are out to get them, even the ones that follow all laws and pose no threat.
The 2A is to prevent a overreaching government like this illegal search and seizure.
maritime law is not the same... They have unchecked powers to board detain and fine! Even though they are now considered law enforcment thanks to Bush!
That dudes hair is out of regulation
lance schustereit, prove it.
There is no tapper to his hair cut it goes from buzzed sides to 1 1/2 + in length
lance schustereit by a long shot !!!
It’s the coast guard who cares that’s the most action they will get
lance schustereit not true it’s short enough on the sides the top doesn’t need to be shorter after bt
To let everyone know who has not gone through this. This is an inspection not a search. The coast guard does not need any warrant to conduct an inspection of required safety gear. It's called federal law. If your curious Google it.
Inspection and Search is the same. You still need under the Constitution to have Legal cause to stop an American from going about their daily lives. Nothing Trumps the Constitution. They try to make laws that are not legal and do not stand up in court.
@@prophetseven728 They are not the same. Look up 14 USC 522. The legal definition of a search versus an inspection is clearly defined in U.S. Code
@@SHADOW848DUCATI Still goes against the Constitution. Of you having the Rights to Secure your Papers and Property.
How is this constitutional? Stopping Vessels for life jackets and other BS because 14 U.S.C. § 89(a) trumps the Constitution? This needs to be challenged in the supreme court. Two major issues with this:
1. Military being used against United states citizens is almost a form of marshall law. Even though they Claim DHS.
2. There is no Reasonable articulable suspicion that they are in violation of any law.
3.when it comes to search and rescue local LE, fire, commercial salvage, and other nearby mariners beat USCG to saves because they have to wait for multiple persmissions from every level of command to launch. They cant even put out a vessel fire unless it almost kills somebody.
4. USCG should just break ice because thats all there efficienct at.
5. I joined the army because the CG is a joke.
@@RMwalkwithJesus Yes its an inspection of required equipment as per 46 CFR 25 for recreational vessels and part 28 for commercial fishing vessels. You don't have a right to own a boat. To many idiots were dying out at sea because they thought they could just launch a vessel they just bought with zero safety gear on board. Yes we the Coast Guard inspect that gear to ensure that lets say if you forget to put your drain plug in or want to go fishing during a tropical storm that you have the required gear to possibly save your life until help arrives. Speaking of which we are a branch with 44k active duty and a budget that is probably as big as the Army's ammo budget yet we actually perform more missions on a daily basis.
Just got boarded a week ago. Some of the nicest guys ever! Kudos to the Port O'conner Coast Guard! You guy's are awesome!
Good video. In the times that the USCC has boarded my boats they've always been very courteous and friendly.
I have my boat Coast Guard safety inspected every year and in doing that they put inspected stickers port and starboard in clear view, do that and they’ll leave you alone 70% of the time.
Some people go out on their boats without a radio which if they are declared missing takes a up a lot of resources because nobody could contact them. The Uk coastguard will check your boat for safety stuff too.
Semper Paratus!
I'm a retired merchant marine, I proudly fly my coast guard and merchant marine flags. I also have a baseball cap specially made for me, with the merchant marine logo on it
Jeremy, great video and great channel. If any boater is unsure of what they need on their vessel while underway, the Coast Guard actually has a great phone app that will tell you that and more. The app also has a float plan you can fill our before getting underway to send to someone you trust as an added safety feature. Also, the Coast Guard Auxiliary does free vessel safety checks. The will go thru your vessel just like the active duty does and let you know whether or not you have everything you need. And the great thing is they do not report anything to law enforcement.
Fair Winds and Following Seas and keep up the great work.
A lot of people could learn from this. A little respect goes a long way.
Tom Nim Most of you cops are complete judgemental Douchebags
Connor Shekelstein I'm not a cop, I'm a firefighter. Cops don't just go around judging people. Sometimes some individuals are more shady than others so they are more bound to catch an officers attention.
so does a little defiance. a little more defiance and maybe they would think twice about stopping someone like this again. Juste depends which side youre on, do you become fearful and lick the boot to make things easier? or are you the type of person who has the strength to take a stand to help others in the future.. i see which side your on
Tom Nim: Respect is a two way street. Law abiding citizens don't see much from cops.
As a former EMT, I've seen my fair share of shady cops.
Like seeing videos like this...iv never ran into water enforcement that was not super professional.
I’m with y’all on the not drinking part. And if I do have guests, I make sure the boat stays clean (no empties flying around).
One thing that’s important for all boaters to learn is when you’re getting pulled over...is to simply stop the boat and let them come to you (pending the spot is generally safe for a non-moving boat but signal by hand acknowledging contact if you need to move before stopping).
Charlie Spence ‘water enforcement’? Lol. You mean the cOAstGUArd?
Logan B ...we have Coast Guard, Sheriff, and Game Warden all on the water and all can perform vessel inspections. So water enforcement kinda sums them all up.
Alcoholic beverages are ILLEGAL aboard boats
It is not illegal to drink or possess alcohol on a boat
See? I tell people that as long as you comply, and show respect and just make their jobs easy, you’ll usually get the same in return be it from the coast guard to local law enforcement
This is hilarious. I've seen people show respect to law enforcement and still get beaten and arrested. You must be joking.
Ballwiz 23 if you read what I said then you’d see I said usually
Still nonsense. Cops tend to think they're above everyone else and therefore don't have to give respect.
Ballwiz 23 So you speak for every single law Enforcment officer in the United States based on your own experiences?
I said nothing of the sort.
What happens if I try to board a coast guard boat and search them ?
It won't end well for you.
Why arent all officers of all kinds like this, both of these guys handled the situation absolutely perfect
Coasties are highly professional and are the hardest or the armed forces to get into.
I was brought up with respect for law enforcement. My dad was a river rat. He had alot of respect for the USCG. The stuff they check for will be the very things needed when things turn bad.
you should check it yourself, you don't need big daddy to spoon fed you
Checking that firearm is outside the scope of ensuring you have proper safety gear.
yeah but getting shot in the back by someone who just hates any form of authority whatever the reason, is not very safe for them. And what happens if they do a safety check aboard a vessel smuggling coke or something, discover it and they don't know where the guns are. Many of these procedures are written in blood, because they to have a right to go home at the end of the day. @@ccasta7393
Checking for safety equipment is the sole responsibility of the captain of that ship. No one has the right constitutionally to do this.
@@dssanthony Maritime law confuses people, but constitutionally, its allowed.
I love their stainlesssteel boat! man, that's nice.
Aluminum.
Its aluminum
I love the expression "recreational boarding" xD
I was waiting for the civilian to ask if he had fun.
Thewolf1818 “recreational boarding” just means it’s not a commercial fishing vessel
Get boarded by the Coasties off Oregon/Washington coast. Much more involved. I support the USCG. They have a tuff job.
Yeah and you are a boot sniffer Dare Dare.
etikkboksen you must be blind to not see that the coast guard is not only for migrants/drug runners....they're mostly out there for boaters safety, sniff your own boots bud.
I know that, I like them when they rescue, I hate them when act as cops.
Sorry for calling you a boot sniffer, it was really childish of me, I had few beer too much i think.
Have a good summer, stay safe at sea.
Same here man, they really are good people.....same as anyone who goes out from the mainland, they want to make it home too. Just remember they need to act as big brother too not just a standby presence, the majority of what we/they do is public safety! Stay safe!
Yes in northern Washington they have what is called the Ship rider program ,, This is where A Canadian Police officer RCMP can ride with an American coast Guard ship this way they can go on either side of the Border and Make arrest ,, Also American Coast Guard members ride on RCMP Boats this way they can go on either side of the border and arrest and chase other boats across the border,, Here is a link to the program th-cam.com/video/zNlv9YpiiRE/w-d-xo.html
Why can't cops be more cool with people like the military is?
Thanks for all the comments but just a reminder please do no use bad language and be respectful of each other. Comments with bad language will be removed.
Reel Hazardous We used to keep our boat at a marina near a phosphorus plant, and we were leaving one day, and an ammonia ship was coming in - we were boarded by the USCG fully loaded with M16 Carbine Rifles
Thank you Donald
I seem end up watching a lot of sovereign citizen videos just the presence of the Coasties would have set them off! Do what you are asked, politely, and get it done... it probably took less than 20 minutes (total). You were nice they were nice, everyone was polite and fast to do as asked (they didn't even scare the fish, probably) and were gone.
Reel Hazardous I
My family was boarded at 1 am on July 5th a few years ago by cg from Gloucester ma. We had a couple fourth of July drinks earlier. We had all the equipment and it went just as smooth as this video but it was the middle of the night
I am joining the Coast Guard straight out of high school. I will be doing the 8 weeks of basic then the 7 weeks of Maritime. I hope I pass math though.
You got this.
Chris Hadfield your gonna have to check ids
Why not join a real branch?
@@neal5186 as a prior marine and current coastie, I can say, he is
Eric as prior Army infantry I can say he’s not
I think I’d rather be boarded by Texas state game warden lol. You can’t say no to them either though.
I would rather it be the USCG they are at least friendly and less likely to harass me and look for a reason to smack me with a fine. Reason being even if they do fine you the money won't go to the coast guard.
Been boarded by the coast guard before, be polite ,respectful and cooperate you will receive the same in kind.
Sacrifice your freedoms to your overlords and they will be much nicer to you.
Kindly sacrifice your freedoms to your overlords and they will be nice to you.
@@wayneparke554 ignorance is blissful for you
Just toss the Constitution out the window huh? Got it!
Why are they all out of uniform?
Coast guards are not police.. but also not part of the department of defense interestingly enough. They're part of the DHS. But more kinda like military. So no, this isn't a traffic stop, and you do not have the same rights
Matt Gerardi Even though it's neither law enforcement or under the department of defense the coast guard still posses the power to enforce the law and is one of the 5 uniformed branches
And all your rights apply. However it is not the same as a traffic stop.
the cost guard is police lol they are border sercuirty and they got gun and are a branch of militry so they can fine u and take u jail if they werent they woudent uphold tht there like game warrden but in militry sesne
not true! its a uniformed service under the DOD
@@mysexeyes yes it is iunder 911 it ebcame home and sercuity there for there cops not all them ther emilitry branch but when sign up u got to go torugh basic camp as u were going trough marines us army airforce are other branches
Coast Guard Keeps talking about a “vessel” pursuant to title 89 .......problem is, your boat is private property......see US v Williams, Justice Rubin makes a particularly appropriate quote....the Coast Guard has violated the fourth amendment under the guise of Title 89 - commerce regulation.
Enforcement and legislature always begins with regulating commerce/business and ends with a stealthy encroachment, infiltration, of the private sector and erosion of guaranteed, and supposedly protected civil liberties....
Maritime law supersedes the 4th amendment
Its very simple "yes sir, no sir.....have a nice day sir" and you will get a form indicating you have been boarded so next time they won't board you til next season. I have been boating on Cape Cod for 35 years and been boarded probably 10 times for routine inspection. Never had an issue and generally they are very polite and to the point.
Yeah man, so simple.
Papers, please. Your country is now occupied by the Nazi Party have a nice day.
"Yes" and "no" are fine as they're NCOs and not commissioned officers. I was attached to Group Woods Hole and might of being one the guys that boarded your vessel. If people were cool with me I was cool with them. Thanks for being polite to us.
@@DarkShiftMusic showing you don't understand things
I got safety checked last year by the coast gaurd and they was nice,even let my seven year old son on their boat to check it out.Im good with their safety checks but I wouldn't have been ok with him sliding my firearm across the floor of the boat.
The Coast Guard has a tough, dangerous job. We do not enjoy the same 'rights'/protections when on a boat. Thank you for posting. I like you channel! I've been boarded twice in 45+ years of boating. Both times were similar to yours. They were polite and professional and my boats are always in compliance. Just curious, you were speaking clearly during the boarding, but in non-boarding part of the video I was not able to understand some of what you were saying.
You seem almost like a parody of a libertarian. It's almost impressive.
You, mate.
Minerx Does the US have jurisdiction over all of the Atlantic Ocean? I don't think so!
Andrew F Yakim you do have the same rights on a boat, if you are in us Territorial waters.. your constitutional rights still apply
Minerx no any flagged boat from anywhere can be boarded by either your country or by the country’s waters your in
This is how it should be, here in Va Beach the cops are exceptionally rude to tourists on the ocean front.Instead of explaining the issue they threaten you.Not good for business at all.
I've never been to Va Beach; I live on the West Coast. But with respect to Va Beach Police, they probably deal with a LOT of touristy douchebags who are almost always drunk and causing problems; especially on Spring Break. I don't think my attitude would be peachy either if I was in their shoes. They probably signed up thinking it was going to be like something out of "Bay Watch": hot girls, beautiful beaches, awesome weather, laid back atmosphere, cool cars and gear.....only to find out that they're having to deal with fat drunks at Bob's Biker Bar, college kids OD'ing on drugs, and things like that.
But again: I've never been to Virginia Beach, so there you go.
I grew up in Va Beach back in the seventies, graduating from Kellam High in 81. It was a really nice place back then. The population has exploded over the last forty years though, and with it has come big city problems. I sure wouldn’t want to be a cop there now.
They won't say it when they are inspecting your boat for all the required safety items but they are also looking for drugs and weapons being smuggled and also they are looking for humans who are being smuggled into the U.S.
I have been searched by the Mexican border guards going into Mexico and they flat out told me to empty all the firewood I had in the back of my truck. We were just on a surfing/camping trip. They said they thought I had guns under the firewood. I told them to unload it themselves and they peeked under a few pieces and let me go on through.
It is also unsafe to transport firewood because parasites in the wood can spread. That's why it's against the law to do so.
It's not a search, if anything is found it's a plane view discovery
No, the coast guard isn't searching for drugs, they are making sure your boat is compliant with all maritime laws/rules/regulations
If they were searching for drugs there would have been more than 2 of them boarding and the boat wouldn't have just dropped them off. Not to mention their demeanor would have been remarkably different. The CG doesn't just search for drugs unless they have suspicion. This was simply a safety check to ensure the captain and his vessel were complying with boater's regulations.
what is a mini-season? what are the rules for firearms? is it by the state laws? what are the rules for firearms on the water ways?
If you have a problem you'll be glad to see these guys.They are just doing their job.
That excuse was made invalid in 1945
Until I have a problem, I don't want them on board.
@@erikjohansen9724 so you would rather these first-responders waste time, money, resources, and put their lives at risk saving you over an avoidable issue?
@@airborneace no, it wasn't
@@erikjohansen9724 you can't refuse a boarding. The coast guard has every legal right to board any vessel, at any time, and anywhere. If you refuse a boarding, you will get towed off the water, and back to the port, where you could face arrest.
cops of the sea
I respect the Coast Guard and appreciate all they do. Having said that, it seems now days you cant go fishing anywhere, lakes rivers or ocean without some enforcement officer of some branch of Government intruding on a nice day fishing. I don't remember it that way 40 years ago. When I grew up we really DID have freedom and rarely if ever encountered law enforcement.
The slow march towards police state continues. Just a little bit at a time and before you know it the pot is boiling and we're all cooked.
911 changed everything
MADD & dwi's also has changed greatly.
More boats on the water and a tighter CG budget has lead to this (on their side at least). More resources in the area also means if your day goes south they can get to you quicker. Plus if you've been boarded within a year's time then show them the copy of your inspection report. If no major discrepancies still exist then they'll be on their way.
While they were harassing you ten cubans snuck in 240 kilos
nityking1 No, they were checking them for illegal things such as drugs, weapons, alcohol and illegal fishing as well as illegal immigrants
and some mexicans too for extra measures
Only 235 kilos. It was light.
Wait, I thought that the wall would stop that. Or does it not extend into the gulf?
Lmaooo 😂😂😂😂
This is not what freedom looks like
A drivers licence? Do you really need a driving licence for a boat in the USA? Is it the same licence as a car or used used to prove your identity? Things are very different here in the UK...
WidleyWesident depends state by state. I know if you’re born before a certain date you do not need one.
It's required now, to show a driver's license, ever since 9/11
I remember those days! Recreation boardings are much easier than commercial. Yes....they check the standard equipment thats required. And he's absolutely right, when being asked if you have any weapons on board, explain, where it is, DO NOT reach for it. And yes....if the operator appears drunk, they will conduct a field sobriety. Operating a vessel while intoxicated is illegal. Wonder if they still use the 4100 form?
Why is it a federal law enforcement agent's business if I have a legally possessed firearm? How would I know off my guests on board are carrying - I don't frisk them when they clip aboard. That initial questions seems invasive, silly and outside their jurisdiction. Besides, Aren't lots of things on a boat weapons? Knives in the galley,, ice pick, boat hook, a fire extinguisher to the biggie will ruin someone's day, etc etc
@@mikecarew8329 you have to show paperwork on the gun when the coast guard asks about it.
whistles? Sounds like they don't have enough to do if they have to board boats that do not look suspicious. They are boarding boats like if the DMV stopped cars on the street and gave them a vehicle inspection. God.
You are absolutely right, they are conducting a safety inspection just like the DMV does to your car every year or two when you re-register (most states) But since there isn't a version of a Boat DMV everyone has to go to, they do it while you are operating within their jurisdiction.
I'd like to see more Coast Guard people are alway' s blowing through the no wake zone where I keep my boat on the Anclote river in Tarpon Springs Florida .So many power boater's either don't have a clue or don't care if they damage other people's property jet sky's are like torpedoes they think rules don' t apply to them I guess .There are a lot of people that kayak , sports teams row , small dinghy's about and people actually blow it up around the spoil key's blind to what is on the other side . And the very worst of it is the manatees don't move to very fast .
Write their registration number down and better yet take a photo file a damage claim local law or USCG and watch how fast it takes. A lot of beginners and weekend boaters don't realize they are responsible for the damge their boat and boat wak cause.
Write down the CG boat #, the date and the time it happened... then call the station and ask for the C.O. or Officer in Charge... they have to have a sortie # for each time the boat leaves the dock and there list who is the boat coxswain driving it... if the C.O. doesn't stop the problem call the Group Office and the Group Commander will make sure it no longer happens... signed A Former Coastie
Jetski operators are supposed to abide by the same "rules of the road" as boaters do, and supposed to have a boating safety course before they hit the water
@@robertking3264 He was saying he wants to see more CG patrols due to people blowing through no wake zones. His punctuation was off.
Seeing the black boots being worn by the USCG boarding party reminded me of this story. In 1977, as a brand new USCG Ensign, I was assigned to the USCG Eighth District, Intelligence and Law Enforcement Branch, New Orleans, LA as the Assistant Branch Chief AKA: Shitty Little Jobs Officer. My first project was to write a response to a Congressional Query about a USCG boarding somewhere in the Eighth District ( St Marks River in the panhandle of Florida to Brownsville, TX). A person wrote a letter to his/her Congressman complaining about “black scuff marks” left on the deck of his boat by the black hard rubber soles of the work shoes of the USCG boarding party. So, I wrote what I thought was a professional response telling the complaining boat owner “Sorry about the scuff marks, but the USCG has a maritime law enforcement job to do and our boarding crew was doing their job”. Did I mention that prior to joining the USCG, I’d been a police officer for three years. I had to tone down the “Admiral’s response”. I completed my three (3) year commitment after getting my commission and went back to being a police officer/deputy sheriff. Eventually, I was hired by the US Customs Service as a US Customs Patrol Officer and US Customs Special Agent. My time in the USCG was a valuable learning experience.
Great experience - thanks for sharing and thanks to our Coast Guard for helping to keep us safe!!!
Thanks man!
Pussy
Yes, thank you Coast Guard, for infringing on our Fourth Amendment rights.
@@metallica1fan1 maritime law supersedes the 4th amendment
We just do routine searches hoping to take your money.
What money?
ah yes, the old 4100 form so much fun
100 items of which most vessels only need like 10
Just a routine safety boarding if they suspected more would of had more personal and more weapons.
*would have
Love these guys. They save many lives. I used to do inspections. Biggest items were expired flares, no placards for waste, waste valves not secured, for larger boats rules of navigation book not onboard. Most good boaters have all else but tend to overlook those items.
Yes, the rules of navigation book is a required item for most boats now
YOU LOVE PEOPLE who invade your priva;cy and muscle you? You are a fool the coast guard is unamerican.
Nothing to hide, nothing to worry about.
Would we allow the highway patrol to randomly search cars like this?
you have no choice. they board you no matter what. the coast guard are not police they're more like military.
HP pulls you over to get your money, uscg pulls you over just about 99% of the time to make sure you and your vessel are safe, if you end up having a bad day...no pc needed based on 14uscg89a federal law....
They are a military Core and they do this stuff like that because many people bring beer, drugs, and other illegal things out while on their boats witch can be a real saftey hazard witch is why they do this. They also try to make sure your not catching endagerded species of marine life.
Oaml Yaa cool
Samuel Connolly correction, there are a part of the military.
I'm happy to see Coast Guard patrolling, all the shady boaters go away and I can fish in peace. They are professionals just like any other law enforcement agency, corporate with them and their cool.
I don’t like the fact that they took possession of your legally owned and carried firearm! What law gives them the right to disarm law abiding citizens. They kept their firearms and you should have been allowed to keep possession of yours! Everything else was fine and legal.
Great video. I find if you are respectful to the Coast Guard , they will always respond in kind. Kudos to maintaining all current safety gear. Thank you.
Fourth Amendment?!? Pfft. BTW, it might be easier and safer to do safety inspections at port rather than at sea.
Learn your maritime law....
@@skippyguy3It's not maritine law that grants the USGC the power to board a ship at sea.
@@propellerhead2000 sure about that...?..like I said learn your maritime law. Actually just the law might be a good start before you start spouting off about the 4th amendment.
For all of of you people talking about this being "unconstitutional" know that when the revenue cutter service was created in 1790, it was America's only maritime law enforcement not to mention the only seagoing military branch. We had a strong need to enforce tariffs and defend our ports. The laws the coast guard have today are still the same as they were then and the coast guard is the only branch that has total jurisdiction of us waters and can board any US vessel anywhere. A quick look into the history of our country has shown many times the coast guard has used their law enforcement capability to save lives of many and defend America from countless threats. 14 USC 86 may have been written in the 40s but it comes from policy that was written pre constitution
Unconstitutional law is not law. Pigs could have legally been shot. A case like this already happened and the mans charges were dismissed by a federal jury, setting federal precedent, cases below.
"A federal jury has found a man accused of firing at a U.S. Coast Guard crew not guilty of both weapons charges handed down in an indictment by a grand jury in September.
Daniel Michael Szabo, 41, was facing a possible life prison sentence for charges of trying to kill a Coast Guard officer during a boarding and using a firearm while committing a violent crime.
But jurors on April 6 only found Szabo guilty of failing to stop his vessel when ordered to do so by the Coast Guard."
“When a person, being without fault, is in a place where he has a right to be, is violently assaulted, he may, without retreating, repel by force, and if, in the reasonable exercise of his right of self defense, his assailant is killed, he is justified.” Runyan v. State, 57 Ind. 80; Miller v. State, 74 Ind. 1.
“These principles apply as well to an officer attempting to make an arrest, who abuses his authority and transcends the bounds thereof by the use of unnecessary force and violence, as they do to a private individual who unlawfully uses such force and violence.” Jones v. State, 26 Tex. App. I; Beaverts v. State, 4 Tex. App. 1 75; Skidmore v. State, 43 Tex. 93, 903."
Why did you let them take control of your firearm?
what if you are missing a safety item that is required on the boat? Do you have to go to shore right away or do you only get a warning?
you get a ticket, kind of like a traffic violation. (like speeding)
Guy Villeneuve make sure you have everything on your boat squared away before you head out on the water
Guy Villeneuve yep! And if you get caught without correcting the matter you lose boat and go through a process
happen to me once in miami .. i just got a warning. they are nice people (looks serious and grumpy but are nice young guys) . They actually belong to the military for your info, so is not just a cop that is just boarding you ....
Wrong. They are under the DHS . They WERE under the Department of Commerce. Only in the event of a Presidential order ( god forbid this now) will they engage in war time actions.
USCG was involved in coastal ops in The Gulf as well as Vietnam.
LE's are still LE's. NOT to be trusted under any circumstance
If you really want to know what a boarding is like, bring your vessel on the St. Clair river between Lake St.Clair and Lake Huron. Within 15 miles you can get boarded by the city police of Marine City, Marysville, and Port Huron, the U.S. Border Patrol and the St.Clair County Sheriff Marine division....Oh! I can't forget to mention the DNR stopping to inspect you in their "gun boat" too. However if you want to try and enjoy your day on the water, just travel on the Canadian side of the river. They just occasionally have the OPP patrolling the water. Nothing is more fun than taking guests out to a restaurant on the water where you have reservations just to be stopped and inspected for 45 minutes to an hour (and miss your reservation) and then be stopped again after you leave the restaurant and spend another hour having another inspection. If you are on a Power Watercraft you can definitely expect to be stopped as those poor souls seem to be a magnet for the authorities. It is out of hand.
what specific job is this in the coast guard? Im interested.
This is what all boat crews are trained to do at a small boat station. This is just extra duties, the rating is what they normally do when not boarding boats.
Probably BM, MK, and a Seamen
This job title is "Fourth Amendment Violator"
Esquire you mean "maritime law enforcement"
Nope, the constitution is clear about law enforcement searching your property without a warrant. These tools do it regularly. In Nazi Germany these kids would have been Nazi's. There is no honor in any organization that does this to people.
If you get your boat safety checked every season by the coast guard, it will stop a lot of these stops looking for safety equipment checks. They will give you a sticker (at least in Jersey they do) and at the very least it will give them a reason NOT to stop / board your boat to do a safety check and move onto those without the stickers... Now a check for what you caught or for proper licenses not so much so they may still stop you for that. We do it every year at our marina in Jersey at the beginning of boating season and get the sticker just one less hassle to deal with.
Thanks for the tip!
A ‘Safety Check’ should be limited to checking mandated safety equipment, what part of that allows them to search a legally owned firearm?
They don't search off the bat, they initially ask about weapons on board because they're assessing the situation they're entering into.
All boats are different and the boarding officer will ask that the firearm owner simply stow the weapon (if not done so already) or work on a solution that works for everyone.
The idea about the weapons check, is that they don't know you, and they do not know your thoughts towards government officials. So while they are looking at your safety equipment, designed to save your life, they don't need to be getting shot at.
@@AwsomeEric100 Eric, the reason they are checking your weapon, is because they have boarded your boat.
The coast guard is not compliant to search and seizure laws or the Constitution. A search warrant is not required by the c.g.
@@paulh.7833 And if I refuse to answer of the rationale that a legally possessed and concealed carry weapon is no business of federal law enforcement whatsoever?
The USCG has enough problems without boaters trying to persuade them otherwise, I actually am always thrilled to have them on board, OK so it bothers the people on the boat for 15 mins guess what who cares, their doing their jobs to help us safe, just sit back, thank them for their service and all they do and then go about your day, simple and easy!
sure do miss this, best 6 years of my life.
When will people get it: they don’t care about safety people. They care about safety the same way as our military cares about “spreading democracy”. What part of the old saying “we’re the govt were here to help” don’t you people get?
this dudes ego tho
Let the skinny man have his day lol
That's typical of a 2nd class.
Muh' firearms
It shouldn't have any ego on account of his haircut.
think he was talking about the uploader no? Princess lol
Great video. USCG boarding teams have a tough job, just be respectful and it will go well. However, the USCG boarding team needs to zip up those PFDs for them to be effective. I know it is hot and uncomfortable but if they fall in, especially with all the other gear, having the PPE slip off makes a bad situation worse. Semper Paratus!
Jon McGlone I was thinking the same thing. Here they are, checking for safety items and they don’t have their pfd’s zipped.
They have them clipped together, also those are inflatable PFDs not your typical foam ones. They might not even have a zipper.
Is it just me or are the coasties wearing their life jackets unfastened?
djcfrompt if you research different life jackets you’ll know what kind that is :)
It’s an inflatable with pyro on it not meant to be tightened down that much
you are allowed, you don't even have to wear it at all, you just have to have it
they aren't, they have a belt buckle in between the two inflatables.....its has a CO2 canister that goes off if the person hits the saltwater
Zreknarf no in the USCG while underway you’re required to wear it at all times.
I don't care what anyone says. No one kicks or pushes my pistol and drags it across the ground. How disrespectful....
Reel Hazardous - You did everything right. Good job. The disrespectful morons posting here will depend on the Coast Guard to save them when they get into trouble. It is at that time that they will learn to have a lot of respect.
People WANT to be rescued when they're in trouble. They don't want to be hassled or Unconstitutionally searched by them.
@@airborneace it wasn't unconstitutional, the coast guard is allowed to board your vessel at any given time
WHEN DID THEY GO TO THE HAN SOLO HOLSTERS?!!! Our ops teams didn't even use those. Looks so vulnerable. Easily accessible, not only for the officer but for bad guys.
What happened to the good ol days where ya just FISH
Too many folks would buy a $4 rowboat and take it out to the ocean with expired safety equipment only to find themselves in a whole heap of trouble later on. The CG would then have to go save them, putting their lives at risk when a simple safety inspection or common sense could have prevented it.
The good old days are long gone
Is it not like driving a car. You can not be just pulled over for not breaking the Law? It goes against or Constitution. Same you do not have to proved papers unless you have broken a Law. Another Constitution Right of the People. Do boaters not enforce their rights. Ive seen tons of Car people do it to police officers. DUI stops etc... Legally Cops have to let them go and do. You need to watch Auditors that Enforce American Peoples Rights.
Very professional...thumbs up
This isn't right man. I consider this action wholly unconstitutional. You know it is too.
Walter White What part of the constitution are they going against, they are literally just making sure everyone is safe out on the water.
It IS constitutional, under maritime law.
What happened to your knee ?
It got cut on the prop. I'll have a video showing what happened soon!
Simple safety boarding. The only minor one they saw was the life saving device and they just told him to take it out. Nothing to violate the boater about.
Nice stop. Like it
its a free country , but your no tactually free to do much really except work a job thats hard to get hired for.,
it would be like been boarded by Pirates.
SR71ABCD - BETA TYSON wait till you need them and say that again
They are the reason US water's do NOT have pirates. You want to know what pirates are like go check out Somalia.
Like being boarded by pirates, except that they don’t steal anything and you don’t get your head cut off.
@dnh300 | He just did. Didn't you see the video?
To all the commenters that keep posting the lines about unreasonable search and forth amendment.
This is not a search.
They are not going around the boat searching for anything.
This is a safety inspection.
They are asking if he has all the required gear to be on the water.
All any boater is required to do is show the CG all the gear they say is asked for as required by maritime laws.
Thats it.
Just like a car inspection.
Also, if you were inspected that year/season already, just show them the receipt and they dont inspect again.
It turns into a search if they have probable cause of a crime committed, not because they cant see all the life vests on board.
As for the firearm, they asked. If you are legally allowed to carry in the waters off the state you are floating in, then there is no problem with telling them.
If they dont ask, you are not required to tell them anything if the state laws says you do not have to during a boat safety inspection.
Check your laws.
And before folks start quoting federal statutes ... They apply in federal waters. As a boater in state waters you are bound by state laws and they cannot conflict with federal laws. If they conflict, state laws win so long as you reside the state.
Venture out into federal waters then obey those rules.
I'm no lawer, just read a lot of law. Check these yourself, or just go ask them at the CG station to provide the statues. Being nice and polite goes a long way.
"Go away, baitin' "
They do not need a search warrant to board any boat, jet-ski, canoe, kayak or vessel. They do not even have to ask permission to board you. You have no 4th Amendment rights on the water. They can board and check your equipment anywhere in the world. They can come and check your equipment while tied up in a slip at your marina. If the local police have a marine division, same for them. You need to understand the laws of boating before you leave the dock, better before you even get to the dock.
There is just no getting away from the cops.
tall guy Technically not cops, coast guard is military
The United States Coast Guard is one of the uniformed military services, under the United States Navy. Not law enforcement.
Almost right, the USCG falls under DHS not the DON
tall guy good thing they're not cops
Not quite. All coast guard officers, both commissioned and non-comms, have law enforcement ability with Federal laws. They are not limited to the military code of justice. So they are cops similar to other federal law enforcement agencies, but have no jurisdiction for state or local ordinances.
WOW MAN THOSE GUYS WHERE NICE AS HECK ..NOW MAYBE IF ALL THE OTHER DICKHEAD LAWMEN WOULD TAKE A LESSON FROM THESE GUYS!!!! WHO EVER TRAIN THEM SHOULD ALSO GET A (A+) IN MY BOOK!!!!!! THE APPLE DON'T FALL FAR FROM THE TREE!!!!
Why does this guy talk like he's trying to hard to act cool?
it’s his voice.
Because he knows he is being video recorded. He probably conducted his best and most through "inspection" since training.
I wish the police could be like the US Coast Guard! When in a boat and these guys are around I feel safe! I cannot say the same for the road pirates!
"We just do routine 4th amendment infringement exercises."
Lonnie Unconstitutional
Lonnie read the 4th amendment, as a natural born American citizen, we have the right be be secure in our persons, and private property. Any obstruction, or violation of such rights is unconstitutional.
Lonnie I read my constitution every day, it is with me 24/7.
Lonnie read the 4th amendment.
Dude you sound like one of those people who claim they are roaming the land under the Articles of Confederation. Not everything is cut and dry, there are exceptions to everything. You need to read up on Constitutional law. Just because the second amendment says we have the right to bear arms, it does not mean we aren't subject to regulations.
There are too many laws in America. You can violate them or even commit a felony without even meaning too. Wonder why the 4th Amendment doesn't apply out in the water...
Are they feeding the coast guards? They're looking a little skinny 😅
Well they swim a lot... and if you look at how swimmers are built.... ...... ....
kyle warmerdam : salt water and kale.
hey man not all the cooks in the CG are good lmao
You're used to seeing and hanging out with fatasses. This is what healthy fit people look like.
if i were ever boarded by the coast guard, or the fish and game protectors, i would absolutely want it to be carried out by people who behave like them.
This is fine and all but does this fall under the 4th amendment?
Reece Mechanical no. Vessel inspections are not considered searches since LEOs are asking to see the equipment. Not searching for it. The boater said his equipment was in the compartment under the coasties foot. So its more like a building inspection.
No secrets of the coasties develops probable cause that a violation of law has occurred all the amendments apply.
Reece Mechanical that's a negative friendo
Nope. Maritime law.
“Don’t pull a gun on law enforcement.” Good thinking, buckwheat!
I know it's not that big of a deal but I didn't know we boat in a police state.
Dan Sakalas and to make sure your square lifey is on deck
So that makes the 4th Amendment null and void, Dan?
Yea I just don’t like the way they can jump on like the sea Gestapo
Claude Mountain Maritime Law states that any vessel off the coast of the U.S is subject to search. Waterways are separate from roadways.
Mike Millz even in a lake you get stopped and asked the same questions. It's for your safety.
In Wyoming like a decade ago, alcohol used to be legal on boats. I’m so glad they changed that!
