I think your budy stands a good chance of beating this espically if there were other people on board that were capable of driving even if they were over the age of 14 as long as they have a valid Oklahoma boaters license. Just because he's a cop doesn't mean he's right. This might help

I'm not sure if this is true or not because I have never put it to the test..BUT..as a FYI... A lawyer friend of mine told me that if I ever got pulled over and was asked to take a breathalizer test I should say these words "I will take this test in the presence of my Lawyer". Obviosly by the time your lawyer gets to the station your b.a.l. will have gotten much better.. I know this won't rectify the problem on the water...especially getting "removed" from the boat but it may help in the long run.
It's Kind of ironic that your having this issues with marine patrol. NY just cut funding for marine patrols all over the state. I was talking to my local Sheriff the other day. He informed me they might not even put the marine patrol boat in the water this year. It's kind of good but could also be kind of bad especially if somebody gets into a jam.

Problem is no one does anything about it, people let small stuff go by and dont realize that you give the law an inch and they will stick their whole foot up your behind.. Until the people rise up and take back this country nothing will change and it can only get worse.

BUMMER!
Let me get this right... LEO can pull you over (underway) and give the person sitting in the back seat a BUI?
OR If everyone onboard (anchored) points at one person who is sober and is the "captain," LEO can still take anyone in for BUI?
I know of a few people who keep the the local LEO in business as it is!!!
Does anyone have a link to this law in writing?

i dont see the big deal, shouldnt be a differance between a boat and car. And you shouldnt be drinking while operating a boat anyways. Its kind of rediculous seeing people get all bent because they cant drink or drink as much. Is alcohol really that important and you cant have fun without it.

That may be somebody interpretation to the law. I doubt its written that way, I would like to see how it reads. Maybe its a little loose on how it's read. A lot of people see new laws and freak out and think OMG we cant do anything.
Im all about drinking and love doing it, but me personally if it were up to me the DRIVE and driver only of a car, boat, motorcycle, etc would be ZERO tolerance. No drinks at all. Personally I think well see that somebody due to all the idiots and the BS and confusion that goes along with it. Be alot easier knowing you cant drink at all vs can I have one or three
