Not really, any state could mandate minimum insurance for boats. Then if you want to cruise in any other state, it is on you to comply or risk...
Likely that all abandoned and derelict boats are uninsured. The solution is to require all watercraft to be insured with liability and guaranteed...

We used SSB years ago fishing the GOM when out of VHF range. We could reach boats from the dock to check conditions and the bite. There was a fair...
Does anyone still monitor SSB for marine emergencies?
We have commercial trade tenants, contractors, and subcontractors. No retail. All are having problems hiring qualified help including the marine...
Whenever we bought a boat in SE Florida I would get the work done in the Stuart/Ft. Pierce area, not at the Lauderdale area or northern Gulf...
Yeah, it can get messy. Your gal looks good not being cropped and docked.
Donate the old chain to one of those local fishing wrecks. :D
That color of SeaDek looks good. You need a video camera catching all that action for our entertainment. haha
