Bill > H1211

This bill, titled "Ellie's Law," requires commercial airboat operators to have specific documents onboard their vessels, including a photographic identification card, proof of completion of a boater education course, proof of successful completion of a commission-approved airboat operator course, and proof of successful completion of a cardiopulmonary resuscitation and first aid course. The bill provides an exception for individuals who hold a captain's license issued by the United States Coast Guard. It also directs the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWCC) to adopt rules to implement these requirements by October 1, 2018, and imposes a penalty for violating the provisions.
