Got stopped by RCMP yesterday, we were the only boat out.
after almost swamping us with his wake,
questioning went like this ...
RCMP- (from 10' away) how many people on the boat ?
Me - two
RCMP- How many licenses on the boat ?
Me -two
RCMP- What is your name ?
Me- Bla bla
RCMP- what is your birth date ?
Me- bla bla
RCMP- how many fish on board
Me- I wish I had some to show you.
RCMP- where did you launch from ?
Me- Oak bay
RCMP- Is your gear barbless?
Me- yup (they didn't check)
They seemed to miss key information, didn't ask about safety gear
didn't ask for my PCO card or my boat licence.
Not sure how the info they requested was of any value?
