Inside Florida's Controversial Boat Law And The Surprising Truth About PERMANENTLY Anchored Vessels!

In this special episode of the Southern Boating Podcast, hosts Ian Sneed and James Anderson dive into House Bill 481 and the growing boating crisis in Miami Beach. After meeting with City Commissioner Suarez and Miami Beach Police - Marine Unit, we saw firsthand the issues that have led to the push for new anchoring regulations. 🚨 Key Discussion Points: What is House Bill 481? A proposed law limiting anchoring to 30 days within a six-month period in certain counties to combat derelict boats and squatting issues. The Boating Crisis in Miami Beach: How long-term anchored vessels, some tied to sunken boats instead of anchors, are creating safety, environmental, and legal issues. Criminal Element: How abandoned vessels are being rented as illegal liveaboards, evading regulations and turning waterways into lawless zones. Environmental & Economic Impact: How untreated sewage dumping, fuel leaks, and vessel neglect are harming the marine ecosystem and driving away responsible boaters. Why Boaters Support HB 481: Debunking the myth that this bill is just for wealthy homeowners—it was written by boaters, for boaters to protect the industry and community. This episode gives you an inside look at the real problem and why changes are needed.
