I didn't see anything in the article explaining WHY he had to have a
fence around his boat. Is this a case of "Because we said so!" or is
there a sensible reason for the policy?

As for the fence he built, it's brilliant! We should all do that when
faced with unjust laws and rules: either fight them (if we can) or mock
them.
