After last call, we exited the bar and began walking to my boat to drive home.
How could you drive home in your boat?
p.s.
You were impersonating an officer. You broke the law. However, get a criminal defense attorney and demand a jury trial. Tell the jury, and ask them to let you go for doing the right thing.

I think that if he never identified himself as a police officer, never showed a counterfeit badge, and never claimed to be placing anyone under arrest, he didn't do any thing that could be construed as impersonating a police officer.
It sounds as if the case would have to revolve on his demeanor. If walking with a swagger is impersonating a police officer, then we're all in big trouble. Showing someone a driver's license is evidence of NOT impersonating a police officer.
Boat: a large, heavy, older American full size automobile, usually low milage. example - 1957 Chrysler Imperial four-door sedan.

We have a houseboat that we spend our weekends on in the summer. We went out by car to a local bar with the wives/girlfriends, returning at about 11:00. The guys decided to take a speedboat ride to town to hit a couple of bars. The speedboat was parked at a public dock just off main street, less than a block away from where the whole thing took place.

That's what worries me. I looked up the statutes and it appears I'm guilty.
