How so?

Just curious what you are thinking.

I could see the argument that without inspection checks, people will be unaware of impending safety hazards. However it always seems to me like the folks who most ought to get an inspection are the ones that don't anyway.

I wonder what the liability of a group like SBONH setting up a sort of "fail only" inspection check volunteer group. By this I mean, they couldn't (for liability reasons) tell you outright that you "passed" an inspection. But they *could* tell you if you failed a particular line item.

Biggest change I see in this is that you might want to consider one of the tow-boat service packages in case you need help on the lake and the MP isn't available.
