Boat Security

What is the official position on that? If you are in state waters does that states CCW permit apply or is it up to the coast guard??

I don't know for sure but I think every state has it's own rules. I know that's true as to possession in a vehicle. You don't need a CCW to legally be able to have a weapon in your car in FL. You do need one to carry a concealed weapon on your person.

In some states, as long as the weapon is NOT concealed, it can be carried on your person.

Rules on water? Don't know. But I adhere to adage..Rather be judged by 9 than carried by 6.

Absolutely!

I was thinking more along the lines of handguns, I have been thinking about the mossberg mariner for a little while now.
Question is where to put it on the boat.

Me too! Sport rifles are different.

Have you seen the current thread on the subject over on THT?

It's typical THT. :roll:

When moving boats up and down the coast, I carry a Mossberg 590 Mariner loaded with LE 00 Buck.
It is carried in a Mollie covered scabbard so it is protected, but still accessible.
