When he see's you put it in the water at the dock. Trust me, they might not know everything but some of them (the ones on my lake) do. He is my neighbor and patrols 3-4 days a week and is very in tune with the in's and outs of boats and safety.
Off topic: My buddy got a $500 ticket for not slowing down in a normal channel (not a no-wake zone) when the Sheriff insisted with "hand signals" and yelling at him to slow down. No lights on the Sheriff boat, no signs, no on the water incidents. Buddy calls the County clerk to find out when he can request a hearing. The clerk said the Sheriff never turned in the ticket to them to process. Ticket dropped. Just another example of them over reaching for no reason which I would suspect them to do in this case, legal or not.
