I think as a tube or a pontoon as a boat. I carry a whistle, a compass and I have an oar, the only thing I am missing is the lights and a bailing bucket.
I don't see how following "BOATERS" rules can possibly hurt while in a tube.
I an in a different position however, as I have a motor on my pontoon and I do have to license it.
Moving water or rough water due to a storm moving in, I am always wearing a life jacket. Stillwater, I have the jacket within reach.
I do know, some lakes will say NO BOAT, but tubes are more than welcome.
Good luck on your search and keep us up dated PLEASE.
