The Yachtsman's Lawyer

Rate this book
Because of the historical importance of shipping to the UK, the legal concept of the ownership of a vessel, and the mechanism of recording this, has developed differently to the law of ownership of objects or 'chattels' in general. English law developed as a pragmatic system and has never had a separate theory of ownership. This book continues to discuss:
1. Yacht Ownership and Registration
2. Buying and Selling a Yacht
3. Yacht Insurance
4. Consumer Protection
5. Liability to Others
6. Salvage, Towage and Loss of Property at Sea
7. Lien and Arrest
8. Public Rights of Navigation
9. Marinas and Yacht Harbours
10. Rating of Individual Moorings
11. Trailing in the UK
12. Documentation for Trailing Abroad
13. A Summary of Statute Law Affecting Pleasure Craft
14. Reporting to Customs on Departure and Arrival
15. Chartering
16. International Shipping Conventions
