The Town Council hereby adopts, as if set forth in full herein, all provisions of § 46-22-1 et seq. of the Rhode Island General Laws (as amended) relating to the operation and equipping of vessels.
In all mooring fields, no vessel shall be operated at a speed which shall cause a wash or wake which is potentially dangerous to persons or which can cause damage to property. In no event shall the speed exceed five miles per hour in any Barrington waters, except the areas designated within One Hundred Acre Cove, Upper Barrington River, Barrington Beach and any other area designated by the HM. The HM shall maintain a list of those designated areas where speeding is allowed.
No waterskiing, wakeboarding, tubing or the like shall take place within 50 yards of any bathing or mooring area.
All vessels shall use care and courtesy when passing under bridges or by vessels where people are fishing.
All accidents in Barrington waters involving any property damage or personal injury shall be reported to the Barrington Police and the HM.
A. 
A vessel may anchor on its own anchor in the waters and harbor areas of the Town of Barrington, except in federal navigation channels, navigation fairways, mooring fields (not including transient fishermen), swimming areas, rights-of-way/buffer zone ingress and egress areas, and launching ramp areas, for a period not to exceed 24 hours. Written consent of the HM is required for extended visits of more than 24 hours. No vessel anchored under such conditions shall be left unattended overnight. Owners and/or operators of such vessels may go ashore but must be available to tend the vessel if necessary. It shall be the vessel owner's and/or operator's responsibility to remain clear of all moored vessels and any structures.
B. 
The rafting of two or more boats side by side is not permitted in the Main Harbor without the approval of the HM. Vessels at raft in any Barrington waters shall not be left unattended overnight.
