I am considering a low priced NON BINDING auction for a (1) passenger on a practice run for the Catalina ski race. Does this sound like something people would consider OK on ***boat or no?

I think it would be a great idea. Maybe even throw in that a portion would be donated to a charity or someone who has needed help through another thread on HB.

Does this sound like something people would consider OK on ***boat or no?Aside from HB, I'd check my liability insurance if I were you. Selling or auctioning off a ride might be considered "passengers for hire" and regular boat insurance won't cover you for that. Just sayin... :)

True. But an umbrella (homeowners policy) has already aprroved my sponsorship pkg. So I will check with them again... Trying not to involve Boat policy in this.....

you might also want to look into the licensing affects of carrying passengers for pay (Coast guard). I think if the money went towards something (such as sponsoring the race team, etc.... then it might not fall under that since they are not actuall paying you directly for the ride. The ride is more of a perk.

OK so I will auction off the person getting there name on the back of the t-shirt and a ride is included.?. and 50% would go to a situation/Charity that is ***boat.com related.....

Yes and I need to keep one of the practices THERE WILL BE 3 for the team only.... Boat is a 5 seater and with the rooster the Observer needs to move from side to side to see the skier..... 4 on that boat at one time is in my opinion the only safe way for the skier.

Hopefully the folks sponsoring with there names on the boat have gotten the approval from their insurance companies, the liability of putting your name on anything involving racing is a real no-no to a lot of insurance companies!!!
don't want to rain on the parade, but I found out the hard way. (nothing really bad but got reamed by the insurance man!)

I was just wondering if there was anything that they fealt was over looked, or if from a liablity stand point why it would not be a good idea. Not trying to debate. Just making sure that hopefuly all the bases are covered.
