Look up NYS Brianna's Law. NY is phasing the BSC in. Eventually as of 1/1/2025 everyone no matter what age will need a BSC in NY too. But right now March 2021 you do not need any training at all. Jersey passed the age phase ins in pre-2008- everyone needs one
That's what he meant.
NJ waters requires you get a BSC, whether NJ or NY, get one. Right now in NYS waters you don't need crap if you're over 28 years old. But if you're in NJ from NYS you need a BSC (whether NY or NJ or CT or PA, etc) you need one in NJ waters.

Capt Frank.. Yes I realize every word you wrote.. Thats exactly the point I was trying to make... I AM compliant. I will be for 4 more years..
However, the question is this.. Does NJ recognize my legality in waters that are reciprocal??.. Thats the reason for this entire conversation... If I pass some line halfway out in the bay, am I suddenly a criminal?....
The ONLY problem I have with any of this is the fact that all the launches are in NJ, unless I want to go into Queens or something . [I don't].
I would simply stay on the NY side and fish there.
