The U.S Coast Guard has issued these regulations to
implement International Convention for the Prevention
of Pollution from Ships, 1973, commonly known as
Annex V of the MARPOL (Marine Pollution) Treaty
73/78. They apply to all U.S vessels wherever they
operate (except waters under the exclusive jurisdiction
of a State) and foreign vessels operating in U.S waters
out to and including the Exclusive Economic Zone
(200 miles).
It is illegal to discharge waste from your marine sani-
tary device into the water in most areas. It is your
responsibility to be aware of and adhere to all local
laws concerning waste discharge. Consult with the
coast guard, local marina, or your Corsair dealer for
additional information.
Drugs and Alcohol
In the best interest of safety, you SHOULD refrain
from the use of Drugs and/or Alcohol while operating
your boat. Operation of motorized vessels while under
the influence is a Federal offense carrying a significant
penalty. The use of Drugs and /or Alcohol will
decrease reaction time, impede judgment, impair
vision, and your ability to safely operate a boat.
Age Restrictions
No person under 16 years of age may operate a motor-
boat of more than 15hp, except for a sailboat that does
not exceed 30 feet in length or a dinghy used directly
between a moored boat and the shore, or between two
moored boats. The law allows persons 12-15 years of
age to operate motorboats of more that 15hp or sail-
boats over 30 feet if supervised on board by a person at
least 18 years of age. A violation of these provisions is
an infraction.
Speed
Speed is limited by law for certain conditions and
areas. The maximum speed for motorboats within 100
feet of a bather (but not a water skier) and within 200
feet of a bathing beach, swimming float, diving plat-
form or life line, passenger landing being used, or land-
ing where boats are tied up is 5mph. A safe speed
should be maintained at all times so that: 1. action can
be taken to avoid collision, and 2. the boat can stop
