Keep this in mind if a jet skier ever hails you for assistance. TFJ "If you come across a fellow kayaker in distress or immediate peril, (about to be swept onto a reef) and if they ask for a tow or assistance - you may be well within your rights to claim salvage. I know of no such case. But kayaks are vessels and would seem me to be subject to the same salvage laws that govern other vessels. Now I'm not an advocate for litigation, but perhaps if some one was to claim salvage rights against some of these floating Darwin experiments, some good could come of it." ------------------------------------------ The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged, confidential, and protected from disclosure.
