DOT inspection

[Island Fish Lifter]

Has anyone had their inspection yet? Dave Murphys the only one I know thats had one.

Yep, it's a cakewalk. Just read the Transport Canada Stanards for Construction, and the required safety gear to have on board. Make sure everything is neat and tidy, if it looks good, chances are it is. Do not forget your radar reflector, a metal arch does not cut it.

I had the "inspector" out on my tub a few months ago. I bought a new boat and although at this time, guides on the river dont need it, it will be comming. I pretty much passed except for the "ISO Stability". The boat is fine but because its a U.S. built boat, there was no documentation. Im no math wiz so Ill let someone else figure it out, then get a copy of there paperwork to pass on. Its kinda a sketchy deal to begin with. One ispector will pass stuff and others will fail. Its sortof wishy-washy and open to interpritation with them I think.

Is this inspection for charter boats, or all boats?

Charter boats.
