What! Is jonboy taking passangers for hire without the required USCG licences?
He can not do that legally can he?

Tell us more Capt!

Ganz has this little scheme where he rents a boat on which he places
himself as the captain. He then 'shares' the expenses with his passengers
and claims on his website that he doesn't make any money doing this but
often loses money (called CYA!).

No kidden? Sounds mighty shady to me. You would think Jon would write
his own seatime on his Cal 20 and sit for a licences. Bwahahahahah

The way I look at it and the way the Coast Guard looks at it, Ganz needs a
USGC license to do this legally.

Well..... that is the law. And the responsable thing to do.

Ganz seems to think his little 'share the
expense' scheme is legal.

It is not. If any money of any kind changes hands then it is
considered charter for hire, Many charter boats do not make money.

One of these days - probably after a collision or
accident that results in injury to one of his passengers - he will be busted.

How dangerious in such a congested bay full of dangerious currents.

To bad they shut down Alcatraz a short journey for Jon. After all
sounds like a federal offence to me.
