I think Basskisser was asking what damages has the boat owner suffered?
If the boat owner has insurance, it is the insurance company is taking
this to court.
While the Tow Company may not prove his case, and be able to prove this
was truely a salvage situation, it would probably not be considered a
false claim.

time will tell, but I am willing to bet that no damages will be awarded
to the boat owner or insurance company. I would guess the insurance
company will settle prior to a judgement.


Maybe he is self insured. And the insurance company will probably not
settle this one prior to judgement. To easy of a case to win foir them and
swat down a lot of other cases of the same sort early on.

I wish it was as cut and dry as you think, let us know of the outcome.
