I'm looking at this more from the perspective of the seller's dispensing of their liability. How do they trust that this transaction is done? It looks to me like there is no veracity in that at all. The attestation can literally be, “Yes, I believe it.” They attest to the judge that they believed at the time the buyer had the resources to do this. It doesn't matter what the truth of the matter was at the time. As long as the seller, in their own mind, is reconciled that they really want to sell this boat, that they really have to get rid of this boat, that this boat has to go away and be no longer part of their life.... It's, yes, I trust this guy because I want to trust him. He signed a napkin with pencil, so that's good enough.
Can you see how that is a possible circumstance that's going to happen on a dock or a coast somewhere in Canada?
