I just bought an Ocean Kayak Prowler 13 off of Craigslist and I was wondering about what legal requirements I should be concerned about?
Is a life preserver REQUIRED? Of course it's wise, but actually required?
I know that lights at night are required, a friend was ticketed in a canoe fishing at a trout light at night.
How about ALCOHOL while operating a kayak???
I watched Sheriffs Deputies busting boaters at Navy Point for that years ago, they watched them pulling their boats out and if they were drinking they were getting them on a double whammy of BUI and DUI.

Any thing I am overlooking?
