Please forgive my ignorance on this topic, but although a reasonably experienced helmsman I have never owned a NB before, a failing which I intend to rectify early next year!
My question is about Insurance - so is it the Boat that is insured or is it the Owner / Helmsman. My point is, if my wife and I buy a NB and insure it, are we the only ones who are allowed to be the "skipper" or can we let friends and family use it without us being on board (without financial gain) and still be covered by the Insurance should they mess up and damage another boat or CT infrastructure for example.
I welcome any thoughts please - note, I am not looking to hire it out or anything like that, either officially or otherwise!
Many thanks
Doug
