The vessel is unsafe and the guy obviously has some mental issues so the Coast Guard really doesn't have a choice they have to bring him in and site him for having an unregistered vessel in the process.
Sounds too European for my liking.
Maybe by the letter of the law, they did the right thing. But personally I don't agree with the gov't protecting us from ourselves. As long as there is zero risk to others, and this one is as close to "zero risk to others" as you can get...leave him alone.
What was the worst case scenario? The guy doing it dies before reaching Europe or Africa?
Sounds like you've been bought and paid for by Big Coast Guard
300K worth.
DANG, I thought those service academies paid for everything??
They do and that is the value our family got. I’m bought and paid for.
Well they do make the kids take out a 10K interest free loan that pays for their uniforms, laptops and such but the payment is taken out of their pay (they get a small salary while going to school).

That is a shame too. Why force people who actually want to be there out? BidenomicsSo can he just register the fucking thing and then go on his merry fucking way?
Is this not how the "New World" was discovered? These pirates!
My son was allowed to leave the Coast Guard after they came under the Dept. of Homeland Security and decided to "diversify" all eligible white boys out the service with full bennies....
The new Coast Guard:
Actually that religion you speak of started several thousand years before the water walking
Consider it like this: once the Coast Guard knows about it, they at least share liability for any negative outcome of the guy. His craft sinks and he dies and then the gov't gets sued for $40 million. Individual gov't workers can't be sued, and it's assumed policy and authority structure are responsible. Those costs then are borne by the taxpayer.
Revenue streams.
No way I’m living next to Morocco. You ever smell their cooking?
