Rules for inspecting boats that moor in state harbors
The state must set minimum inspection standards, approve qualified marine surveyors, and set their fees for boats that want to moor in state small boat harbors. If a boat fails inspection, the owner has 30 days to fix problems and get re-inspected. Owners can challenge a failed inspection with a three-person arbitration board.
