An essential book for boatowners and charter operators

If you are like me, you wonder exactly what your legal rights are with regard to your boat. Admiralty law was actually developed to protect boat owners and it is quite different in unexpected ways from the civil and criminal laws you may be familiar with. This book shows you what the limits of your liability are. The subject is complicated, but the author does a good job of explaining things in laymans terms. Few people really understand this subject. Make yourself an expert. Buy it and and pull it off the bookshelf each year are refresh yourself on this subject--that is what I do.
