Don't know if it would ever be policed but your supposed to make the decision prior and have have all the required safety gear or every passenger when commercial, so technically saying depending on 1st fish killed is not correct.
you only need a solas raft if your documented, and more than 50 miles from the coast, state registered boats never need a Solas raft.
Also you also do not need survival suits in july, aug, or sept.
