Very cool video. That's something I did when I got my first boat 5 years ago. Went and got an "manual' for my state and made sure I had everything. Most of the time the ticket received if much more than the item you don't have. Every year I check just to make sure of any changes.

Hey thanks for video I live in SC too and fish Lake Wylie in my Pelican Bass Raider, do you have to wear the life jacket all the time?

[@FunnerToDoIt]

If you are over 18, in SC you are required to have a vest on board with you. That is for each person on the boat. It does not need to be worn. However, anyone under 12, in a class A boat, must wear a vest at all times. Also, the auto inflate vests that a lot of fishermen wear, that inflate upon contact with water, must also be worn at all times. They do not count as a life vest if they are in the boat, and not being worn. Hope this helps.

Ya I also read about guys saying there inflatables didn’t inflate 😳 I’ll just stick with the regular vest. Hey I fish Lake Wylie how bout you?
