I'm in oregon so that is what I a specifically talking about..... To my knowledge.... for around a 20' boat you need,<br /><br />Life jackets,<br />throw able life thingy.. :) <br />Fire estinguisher,<br />Flares (if in ocean)<br />Distress flag??<br /><br />Proper ventilation and all the other good stuff.<br /><br />so what do you know aobut it?<br />dave

You probadly know this, but here is a link to your states rules.<br /><br /> http://www.boatoregon.com/Laws/Requirements.html#2 <br /><br />I'd just follow that and you will have no problems. I wouldnt worry about what people say. Just go by what your state says.<br /><br />Hope this helps.
