Okay. Thank you.
I'll move on to clause 3, where you intend to change section 34.1 by saying:
It is prohibited for an owner of a vessel to transfer ownership of it to a person, if the owner knows that—or is reckless as to whether—the person lacks the ability, resources or intent to maintain
Can you describe to the committee how an owner who has a boat...? I come from the interior. There are lots of small vessels sold on the front lawn. Basically, the owners are tired of them. Say somebody driving by on the weekend stops in to buy it. How can this apply to a case like that, where the transaction may take place in less than an hour in somebody's backyard? That's a typical scenario, and I don't see how this bill will cover that.
How can an owner—the current seller—possibly be expected to guarantee that the buyer is qualified?
