I had a discussion with the CO at Hardy

Goes to show you that the CO's are not as bad as some make them out to be. I have been checked about a dozen times in 4 different states over the years and have never had a problem with any of them. Always helpful and will answer any question you have. Just my experience.

Everyone has different encounters though. That goes with everything.

CO's have a job to do just like everyone else. I've run into the occational one that seemed to me abuses his or her authority. Interupted a good fishing hole, and all that. Report the bad ones in my opinion. It is their job to ask for liscences, life jackets, extinguisher, lights, and all of that. It is an imposition, but it is their jobs. Their job is to keep you safe.
