My goal is to stay legal, so I'm looking for someone who might know a bit about the laws in FL. As this place becomes more insanely over populated, confrontations between divers and fishermen are occurring much more often. Both want to be at the same location, where the fish are. Here we are very near the gulf stream and the current runs 3-4 mph, so fishermen will drop in then drift over the areas with bottom structure where the fish are. Commercial recreational dive boats come drop their divers in the same exact location, and they're not shy about dropping in directly in the path of the drifting fishing boats. My question is; assuming a fisherman is already drifting and fishing, then a dive boat pulls up near by and directly in the path of the fishing boat and starts dropping in divers, who has the right of way? Note the fishing boat is drifting 3-4 mph and not under power, and the dive boat pulls up within a hundred yards or two, so the two will meet within minutes. The law is clear about approaching a dive flag while under power, but I'm not clear on the laws when drifting (not under power) and the drive boat puts themselves directly in the path of the drift.
