Actually that is true. All Coast Guards ships have breathalizers. Boat laws although NOT identical but very similar. There are speed limits, and you cannot drive a boat under the influence of alcohol. If it is a crime on Land, it definatley a crime on sea. A crime is a crime, where ever you go.
Can you please let me know what crime on land, cannot be prosecuted or charged at sea? I would like to know, so I can look further into it.
