We had some clowns 30 ftr catch on fire here in the yard, he caught a nice 50 ft yacht on fire and melted the side. He had no insurance, so they sued the marina. Luckly the marina owner has a release of liabilty form everyone has to sign to be hauled out. Joe |

Joe I'm surprised the marina didn't insist that they have liability insurance...ours won't let you in without it and they want an updated policy every year...which is as it should be...I am thankful that there are no gasoline engines anywhere near our boat... |

Is that machete to cut the rope on a giant catapult that will launch you and
Ms Terry away to safety? How are you going to pull that rusting hulk out of the mud within 30 seconds? 30 hours? I thought iron boats could withstand a little heat. It might anneal the rust. The machete won't help you when you are asleep and the fire has a chance to grow much larger. You are doomed in that watery trailer park. Lloyd |
