> unprotected waters - beyond 3 nm from most of the sea coast...

I stand corrected - it's worse - only 2 nautical miles.

The regs defined unprotected waters in two places - and I picked the wrong
definition.

I believe that France considered doing this once - but the European Union
stopped it. 

Any other jurisdictions out there where you can't paddle to your off-shore
islands or across your favourite bay ?
