    A Coast Guard Station St. Petersburg 29-foot Response Boat – Small II boat crew approaches the 27-foot boat Aug. 31, 2020, to conduct a safety boarding. Federal law requires uninspected passenger vessels to carry only a maximum of six passengers for hire with a Merchant Mariner Credential. Bareboat charters, when properly applied, transfer complete ownership of a vessel to the charterer as a recreational vessel. (U.S. Coast Guard photo by Petty Officer 3rd Class Erik Villa Rodriguez)
