not splitting hairs but he said "what looked like a 17 foot"
I am not sure if they would meet the standards but aren't they pretty heavy for that type of boat? I honesly don't know. Was just speculating.
But by their actions I highly doubt they are that involved in boating to be CG Documented and act like that.
I would belive more so that it was a new boat, being this time of year, with someone running it for the first time to their dock to put their numbers on. Also it wouldn't surprise me if it were property owners trying to set a precident for the season. I am on the lake front and never ever act in that manner but I sure have seen it happen when property owners are trying to make it difficult for rafters.
