Tara, they will when they do "safety checks". At my lake during the first of the year they always like to come up to boaters and jetskiiers and ask them if they know the rules, where there safety equipment is located, and check for the life jackets. On really busy weekends they also like to have a ranger or sherif checking the boats and fisherman to make sure everything is legit. They will fine you, and it can be costly. Like this one fisherman who didn't have a single life jacket in the boat and had the max capacity which is 8 I think. He was mad.
