soobnoob Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 I know I need a Michigan fishing license. But if I'm using my boat, do I need a Michigan boating safety certificate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 All you need is a license.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumma Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 just a license and conform to the Canadian rules of equipment/ safety needed on the water. Your life vests do not have to be Coast Guard approved as long as they comply to the Canadian rated rules with a tag on them. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIFTER_016 Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Might need to have proper ID as well. Passport or Enhanced DL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Devine Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Proper id is important but not necessary. Good to have in case of an emergency to land. The USCG does require a throwing ring or seat cushion in addition to the items required by CCG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloatnFly Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 you will need a passport, and a way of contacting customs, its best to have anytime you cross over the border, be it by water or by car. even if you don;t think they're watching you, they are Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
