Hi Everyone,
While driving our boat from Key Largo down to Islamorada, we were stopped and boarded by the USCG. Overall the experience was pleasant...probably because I had everything they wanted to see...and I got a close look at their massive RIB powered by triple 350 Yamahas. While making small talk with one of the men, he casually mentions a new law that prevents jet boating in the Everglades. I was aware that PWC's were banned, but not jet powered boats as well. I asked for clarification, but he insisted that was the case. I have been unable to find anything regarding this new law which prevents jet boats from entering the Everglades. Even some of the locals here are unsure. Anybody aware of this "new law"?
