I disaagree with Crafty. WIth all of the mess this state is in, I believe the state will turn to find any way to make money and will look into ways to fine anyone they can for anything.. a DEM officer with orders to fine as much as possibe can pay for his years salary in a month if he had to...

for example, fining one vehicle with none of the oversand requirements... sticker, jack plate, first aid kit, shovel, tow rope, etc... is upwards of $600 if fined fully.

Not on East Beach.We've been working on a house there for almost 2yrs.The job forman has an oversand sticker.Apparantly the sticker is the only thing checked,2 fall seasons and the guy in the shack has never checked for anything...ever.

correct, but do you know how many people hit the sand without a sticker? Those are the people who are usually checked for the equipment.

We shouldn't even have to pay for a sticker IMO.. Nothing is f%$#@ free anymore....
