Hello All,
I am the captain of a 110' motor yacht with a good deal of different style handguns and shotguns onboard. I am currently docked in Miami, FL. I often go to the range with the guns and fire them, then return back to the boat to clean and prepare them for trips abroad. We often travel to many very remote places and my crew(wife included) often carry while on their watch of the vessel.
I have just come across the OC website and would love to learn more about the regulations while in port on open carrying. I often have to carry large sums of cash for the owners or their personal belongings that cost more than my house. My wife and I would like to do our part and join the OC movement in Florida as responsible OC members. Please let me know what the current permits and or loop holes that are needed to jump through in order to open carry all the time. We are non drinkers and feel that we would be safer in Miami with the amount of crime that transpires here. After all, we can only protect ourselves and others around us in a moments notice if a gun waving idiot decides to hold up the Subway where we are eating lunch...
Thanks for any and all legal advice, along with current laws.
Best,
Capt JT
