Having problems using HM 03 Surf after beating Koga

I beat Koga and got Surf from the Safari Park, which is supposed to let me surf for the first time. But every time I try to surf (with Lapras, Seadra, etc.) it says I need to get another badge! I have already beaten 7 trainers, but my save file says I only have 5 and need more...this is obviously a big issue because in reality I have beaten the first 7 and therefore can't earn any more on the mainland, but also can't use Surf to get to Cinnabar Island. For some reason I also can't get into the Viridian City gym, even though I cleared Team Rocket out of Silph Co and beat Sabrina.

TL:DR; Pokemon Yellow won't let me use Surf because it says I still need to get a badge, but I have already beaten all the trainers I can...including Koga, who is supposed to unlock Surf for use...and I can't get whichever badges I am missing because I've already beaten the trainers! HELP!
