Ladyman is saying they'll create a group of "Marine Officers" who will be able to breathalyser people at sea.

Thanks, Steve, I caught the end of it. It didn't seem to add much to the discussion except that I can imagine all non-boaters nodding sagely in agreement with the Minister

OOps -= sorry Steve - wish they'd actually publish the whole programme details rather than a crummy 1 liner.

No he didn't! He said there would be Marine Officers who could detain a boater until a policeman comes to breathalize him

You miss-heard what he said.
Marine Officers will be able to detain a suspect until a Police Officer can arrive to breathalise them ........
8 hours later

More worrying was Ladyman's assertion that it's ridiculous there isn't more regulation of leisure boating and it's long overdue.

And he did say that he would work to bring those pesky jetskis under the current shipping legislation. Yipee!

"Marine Officers" Who are they? How do they idenitify themselves? What powers do they have? What redress does the boat owner have if they abuse their powers?
Ladyman said on the radio that the regulations will only apply to "The person responsible for navigating the vessel" The draft text says "Anyone exercising a function in connection with the navigation of a vessel".

Apologies - I was trying to rewind and record it on the DAB. Still, I don't think it will take too much to imagine that these "Marine Officers" will be given the power to breathalyse in the future. Feature creep is rampant in these organisations....

Another major concern, especially in view of Ladyman's opinions is that without a licence to endorse or retract there isn't a lot of teeth to the legislation.
Cue: Licences.

I think the most problematic thing abouyt this is going to be how it is funded. If it is to be self funding they are going to have to have a go at a lot of boaters of they are going to want to levy a charge against all boats. Of course that will also allow them to bring in the water equivilent of the MOT and then we will have to sign a SOWN if we want to escape the tax...

Glad you have grasped that James. I'm afraid that some here cannot see it.
BTW you can "Listen Again" on the BBC website.
Couldn't you or one of your colleagues collar this ladyman guy and do a One to One interview on the subject?
