What are enforcement officers allowed to do under Small Vessel Regulations?

  1. Only request personal identification

  2. Only inspect vessels externally

  3. Board and examine vessels, request identification and relevant documents

  4. Give swimming lessons

The correct answer is: Board and examine vessels, request identification and relevant documents

Enforcement officers are allowed more than just requesting personal identification or inspecting vessels externally. As stated in the Small Vessel Regulations, they are also allowed to board and examine vessels, as well as request identification and relevant documents. Giving swimming lessons, while something an enforcement officer may choose to do, is not listed as a permissible action under the Small Vessel Regulations.
