If one reads further..one finds out that at the moment..there are NO pilot program areas that the "pilot program" has yet to be started or applications taken for it. So, at the moment one cannot anchor with impunity pretty much anywhere it is legal.. there ARE reasonable restrictions built in.
One does still have to follow such rules as NO discharge in specified areas and so on.. that is reasonable. I am sure that those who appear to abandon boats for extended periods will still be subject to being scrutinized.. as well they shoulod be.. and so on.. Whether or not I am in a marina or not.. when this boat goes back in the water. I will be anchoring out when I am out sailing and when I get her home to Fla.
