"The cases where we see requests for waivers of subrogation are typically from marinas that are owned by municipalities or marinas owned by the National Park Service that subcontract the management of the facility," explains Pellerin. "We have had requests from municipalities that were unreasonable in their demands."
Mike Pellerin, director of BoatUS Underwriting, advises consumers to review questionable contract terms with their insurance companies. "BoatUS Marine Insurance has helped to resolve issues like these and come up with language that both sides can agree upon."
The sluggish economy has put a sharper focus on the bottom line and businesses are understandably trying to keep costs down, but it's often at the expense of consumers, their customers. Consumers who agree to hold-harmless clauses can find themselves between a rock and a hard place: a marina absolved of responsibility on one hand and their own insurance company that refuses to pay out claims on the other, because these clauses are often in conflict with the boat owner's insurance policy.
You’ve listed your boat and you’ve found your buyer - it’s time to finish your deal. In the modern marketplace, your transaction can’t be completed with a simple handshake and a wave goodbye. Your vessel transfer also requires filings with your state’s motor vehicle department and other local agencies— filings that call for a complete, well-drafted bill of sale. With the enclosed documents and instructions, you can firm up the terms of your arrangement and prepare for your boat’s new titling and registration.
A bill of sale is like a receipt. It proves that ownership of a particular piece of property has changed hands. It also details the terms of the sale, including information about price, delivery, and condition. Bills of sale can help to prove the identity of a vessel’s true legal owner. Moreover, many states and counties use these documents to determine the amount of sales tax owed on the transaction, if any.
If you follow the enclosed sample and guidelines, you will have a written acknowledgment of the rights and responsibilities being transferred as part of your sale. This will provide essential documentation of your ownership and liability obligations and you will be well on your way to establishing a clear record of title for your property.
Because all of the words are by President Trump, who is billed as the author “by accident.” The picture book’s title and contents were inspired by Trump’s disjointed response last September to Hurricane Florence, which struck North Carolina and South Carolina, where Colbert grew up. here
“Whose Boat Is This Boat? Comments That Don’t Help in the Aftermath of a Hurricane” has sold hundreds of thousands of copies and raised more than $1.25 million for such charities as Foundation for the Carolinas and World Central Kitchen. The contributions come from author proceeds and from the publisher, Simon & Schuster.
“If you love Trump, you’ll love this book because every word in it is exactly what he said,” Colbert, for whom the president has been prime comic material, said during a recent interview with the Associated Press. “And if you’re anti-Trump you’ll love this book because every word in it is exactly what he said.” here
“The original boats had a flat bottom,” says Walwork, who spoke to me from his shop this week. “These continuation boats have a deep vee bottom with a variable deadrise that’s about 20 degrees at the transom. It makes the boat easier to drive and more comfortable.” here
A classic outboard racing runabout is revived by an original builder.
As it floats in the water, the Raveau 16 Dr. King received in February appears to be an exact replica of the 1961 model that was its inspiration, right down to the concave hull sides and the side spray rails. The exceptions are a modern steering wheel and the lack of once-stylish “fins” on the aft gunwales. The bottom, however, is radically different. here

Long active in the antique outboard and boat hobby, Walwork was inspired in 1995 to build replicas of a 15-foot Raveau runabout and a 13-foot Class D Utility Raveau race hull for display at shows, “because it’s a lot easier to find an old outboard than it is an old boat to put hang it on.” In 1996, Walwork was shown a photo of a 1961 16-foot Raveau “Bomb” race boat, and was asked if a boat like this could be built again. Realizing that he’d generated a new-found interest in the Raveau legacy, Walwork decided to build a “continuation” of the 16-foot Raveau with a modern V bottom. That first model debuted at the 1997 Sunnyland Chapter Antique and Classic Boat Society show at Mt. Dora, Fla. more
