Transportation of gasoline by boats over navigable waters of state.

Every person hauling, transporting, or conveying gasoline over any of the navigable waters of this state must, during the entire time so engaged, maintain possession of an invoice or bill of sale showing the legal name and physical address of the person from whom gasoline was received, the legal name and physical address of every person or persons to whom deliveries of gasoline will be made, along with the number of gallons delivered; that is, any person hauling, transporting, or conveying the gasoline must have in their possession record evidence of the legal name and physical address of the person from whom gasoline was received and also the legal name and physical address of the person to whom gasoline will be delivered and the number of gallons to be delivered. The person hauling, transporting, or conveying the gasoline shall, at the request of any person authorized by law to inquire into or investigate said matters, produce and offer for inspection the invoice or bill of sale. Failure to produce the invoice or bill of sale, or if, when produced, the required information is not clearly disclosed, it shall be prima facie evidence of a violation of this section.

No person shall haul, transport, or convey gasoline in boats or barges, over any of the navigable waters of the state, except in boats or barges, plainly and visibly marked on both sides and above the water line thereof with the word "gasoline" or other name of the motor fuel being transported, in letters at least four inches high and of correspondingly appropriate width, together with the legal name and physical address of the owner of the boat or barges in which the gasoline is contained.

Violation of any of the provisions of this section shall constitute a Class C felony.

The provisions of this section shall not apply to boats transporting gasoline to be used solely for their own motive power, nor to gasoline being transported by boats engaged as common carriers.
