Hi Alan,
I do not understand as a newbie what gets inspected in a Boat safety Scheme test, I thought it had failed because of the stern welding, but after looking at the boat it looks they have run it on very little money, it looks like it has not been blacked for ages, so thin k they have run it into the ground, it would make things a lot easier if we could get a BSC pass, then pay the license insurance etc, please don't think for a moment we are trying to cruise for nothing, we want to be 100% legal and pay all our dues.
Update while I was typing this response, I have an email now that says it has no BSC Cert as there is no inspector at that merina, so if we could get it tested at another marina and get a pass that would make our lives so much easier.
So No 1 question now is what gets inspected in a BSC test ?
