we are the builder therefore we have the risk. He would have an amount of responsibility should anything go to court, but we are the ultimate people answering issues.

From what I have seen £500 is reasonable.

Try and do a cat c boat (over 12 m) where it is mandatory for an independent body to be involved and you are looking at £2500 and up

hence my argument that whilst it is A GOOD THING for Ally to get his cat D boats independently done, make it mandatory and we will all be ripped off by the inspectors as well as the BSI

which is why I suggest builders do it now this way and make it unnecessary to have such mandatory regulation....better off our own backs, but try telling most builders that!

Fair enough
