From EskimoBluDay: NY instituted a new boater certificate that requires a standardizied class
Even the NJ boaters class only touches on the dive flag, the instructor would have just kept going if the two divers in the class hadn’t asked him to repeat the distance boaters must stay away.
Biggest offenders I’ve seen are Jet-ski’s, I suspect they are friends of the owners who have never taken the required course. One told us the red and white flags were obstacle course markers :(
In the Manasquan River at the Point Pleasant Railroad Bridge I saw Public safety divers in a RIB run over a diver, the bubble watcher on the bow just sat there looking at the bubbles and never said anything to the driver who I suspect was watching a bikini on the beach :(
