I remember Dan H. had some Park Rangers make him jump thru some hoops for his first test time of Persistence. I wonder how much of what they did, they just made up on the spot. "I cleared the launch with the park officials two weeks earlier. They were very accommodating. Truth be told, I think they were quite excited that I chose them for the launch site. When we arrived at the park I was surprised to be confronted with a four page lawyer written document. It was a release to clear the park, the state, the rangers, and probably even the governor if something goes wrong. OK! If I have to. One surprise though, was the requirement that I have a rescue diver present. I guess they didn't have the same confidence in my little yellow toy that I did. A rescue diver was discussed early on, but it wasn't a requirement, now it was. It sure was comforting to know our own PSUBS, Al Secore, was in route, with diving equipment and cameras. I signed and that was that.

I think almost any boat must be registered, except for a canoe. I know here in Calif. all boats that go in the lake or ocean need the "CF" numbers or the harbor patrol and/or park Rangers will nail you. Frank D.
