Proposed CARB engine regulations threaten to pull #sportfishing and whale-watching boats from service. Ask Gov Newsom to #SaveOurBoats

[Sportfishing Association of California @savefishing]

Captains of passenger sportfishing boats owe a special thanks to Senator McGuire (@ilike_mike). Through his leadership on the #CABudget, it could become economically feasible for boats to reduce engine emissions & ultimately achieve @GavinNewsom's net-emission goals @AirResources

KPBS San Diego reports, "Sport fishing boat owners are breathing a sigh of relief after the California Air Resources Board (CARB) reconsidered regulations on commercial fishing boats." https://t.co/gY5SjVvgU5

California anglers can exhale now. The danger of being denied access to offshore #fishing trips has been averted! Thank you CARB board. #CALeg #cagov

CARB votes tomorrow (3/24) Will they throw passenger sportfishing boat owners a life-preserver? Some say YES! #caleg #cagov #fishing

Kudos to @hmlanding and to commerical sportfishing boat owners throughout California for recognizing that recreational fishing has therapeutic benefits for American veterans! @anglerchron #caleg #cagov

Western Outdoor News opines on CARB's March 24th harbor craft hearing. Will boat captains be thrown a life-preserver? https://t.co/fDuf2Td79F #cagov #caleg

Beginning in 2024, gas-powered lawnmowers will be illegal in California & the state has proposed engine regs that would remove commercial passenger sportfishing/whale-watching boats starting next year. Save 🎣🐳Sign the #SaveOurBoats petition https://t.co/JqY5ra8MdD #cagov #caleg

.@abc7newsbayarea reports that CARB's engine regulations will pull 40,000 semi-trucks from the road next year. Their plan will have the same effect on commercial passenger boats too. #SaveOurBoats #cagov #caleg @WSTA1941 https://t.co/juY8aMxtso

[Sportfishing Association of California @savefishing]

As if passenger sportfishing boats were gas-powered lawnmowers, the State is prepared to pass engine regs that will require "a majority, if not all" of them to be pulled from service starting as soon as 2023. Will Gov. @GavinNewsom #SaveOurBoats? #cagov #capolitics #fishing

[Sportfishing Association of California @savefishing]

Passenger sportfishing boats are NOT gas-powered lawnmowers. However, when the @GavinNewsom Administration looks to ban boat engines too, it sure feels like it. Column: https://t.co/GFV3gmdHQc #cagov #caleg

[Sportfishing Association of California @savefishing]

The CA @AirResources Board believes passenger sportfishing boat owners can simply buy new boats to comply with proposed engine regs. If one looks at what truckers are dealing with, no one will take that bet. @GavinNewsom #cagov #caleg

Over 22,000 California anglers have signed a petition calling on Governor @GavinNewsom to #SaveOurBoats. You can too at https://t.co/JqY5ra8MdD

If you are going to the tackle show this Presidents Day Weekend, visit @fishdanawharf's booth #847 to sign the https://t.co/JqY5ra8MdD petition. State regs could triple the price of one-day #fishing trips! #SaveOurBoats #cagov

.@TheLogNewspaper reports that 'CARB acknowledged data errors relevant to funding, technology, & expectations of CHC owners but did not acknowledge the need to update data..." Flawed data? Oh well, pull those sportfishing boats from the sea anyway! https://t.co/1jPWnCaMAB #cagov

[Sportfishing Association of California @savefishing]

A California commercial sportfishing boat owner makes the case that the CA @AirResources Board's use of flawed emission data will "doom" recreational fishing. #cagov @gavinnewsom https://t.co/lgMUHKM4xg

DID YOU KNOW? -- U.S. anglers outnumber California’s population - the largest state in the U.S. – by 25%. Learn more about recreation fishing's impact in ASA's "Sportfishing in America: An Economic Force for Conservation" report. ➡️ https://t.co/r79Q4xnEvT

The partnership between non-profits that serve special needs kids are at risk if engine emission regulations proposed by the Newsom Administration put passenger sportfishing boats out of business #SaveOurBoats #cagov https://t.co/54OgbphH8B

It is with tremendous sadness that we convey the passing of Captain Don Hansen. Don loved this fleet and spent his life defending and promoting public access to sportfishing. https://t.co/4rf69ojnnj
