Art,What ive found:
"
As far as we know, California state law still is not specific about how far away boaters need to be from a dive flag. As stated above, Title 14, Section 7008, only states that operators of vessels will "exercise precaution."
However, California Boating Regulations are very specific that you must remain go under five miles per hour within 100 feet of "any person who is engaged in the act of bathing" and 200 feet from a 'swimming float, diving platform, or lifeline' "
I was TOWING my flag on a Red and White Dive float 15' behind me and we were less than 40' from the kayaks with flags as well. This guy was just an arse.
