ADMIRALTY LAW
Th
e Admiralty law sometimes referred to as the salvage
law was founded primarily on English law fundamentals
and basically says that a vessel distressed, in danger of
fl ounder, if rendered assistance from a towing company
or private agency, can be forced to relinquish a portion
of the vessels’ worth for the assistance received.
TOWING
In case you fi nd yourself aground or in need of a tow,
or should you want to tow another vessel, keep in mind
that you never use deck hardware or cleats to secure lines
for towing!
Deck hardware is intended for mooring and anchoring,
and is not designed to withstand the strain and pull of
towing. Rather than tie the line to your cleats on deck, it is
suggested that you tie a bridle by passing a line completely
around the hull of your boat to avoid structural damage.
When towing, always stand clear of a taut line, as any type
of line breaking under stress can be extremely dangerous.
Th
e preferred line for towing is double-braided nylon, as
it has suffi
cient elasticity to cushion shock loads. Move
slowly and cautiously.
AVOID DEATH OR SERIOUS BODILY INJURY!
DO NOT USE DECK HARDWARE
INCLUDING CLEATS FOR TOWING
OR LIFTING PURPOSES.
DANGER
!
IN THE EVENT YOUR VESSEL
IS IN DISTRESS
PRIOR TO ALLOWING
ANY TOWING COMPANY
OR PRIVATE AGENCY THE RIGHT
TO PASS A LINE TO YOUR VESSEL,
BE SURE TO ESTABLISH THAT YOU
DO NOT AGREE TO ANY SALVAGE RIGHTS.
ESTABLISH WITH THE CAPTAIN
OR OPERATOR
THAT YOU WISH TO BE ASSISTED
IN A CONTRACT BASIS
AND ESTABLISH A PRICE.
OF COURSE IN CERTAIN SITUATIONS,
YOU MAY NOT HAVE THIS OPTION.
USE YOUR BEST JUDGEMENT!
