It would prevent local bans on vessels based on fuel type. It would also repeal the FWC's authority to conduct random vessel safety inspections without probable cause. The initiative also directs the FWC to create a five-year safety inspection decal program linked to vessel registration. DeSantis says the Boater Freedom Initiative ensures being the Free State of Florida extends to our waters.
