ard* or state law enforcement personnel to come alongside. Some Countries, States and juri-
sdictions may require a minimum age to operate the motorized board, pass a training course,
and/or possess an operator’s license. Requirements vary widely. If operating in a location that
allows minors, such activity should be done only under adult supervision.

motorized board.
3.8. SPEEDING/NOISE

restrictions. Operators of motorized boards are required to adhere to these requirements.
3.9. REGISTRATION
In many jurisdictions, it will not be necessary to register the motorized board with the state
of principal use. However, because the motorized board is motorized, registration may be
necessary. Verify with the state and local law enforcement entities in the area in which the
motorized board will be used most prior to using for the rst time.
