* In order to meet the legal
requirements of SOLAS V, some seagoers (including all yachts) are
required to prove that passages (however short) have been planned. A
passage log should represent suitable proof. Who is going to check?
Probably no one, until you try and make an insurance claim, or are
involved in an incident at sea. Stay legal, insured and up to date
with AditSail. |
