Because of the historical importance of shipping to the UK, the legal concept of the ownership of a vessel, and the mechanism of recording this, has developed differently to the law of ownership of objects or 'chattels' in general.  English law developed as a pragmatic system and has never had a separate theory of ownership.  This book continues to discuss:1. Yacht Ownership and Registration2. Buying and Selling a Yacht3. Yacht Insurance4. Consumer Protection5. Liability to Others6. Salvage, Towage and Loss of Property at Sea7. Lien and Arrest8. Public Rights of Navigation9. Marinas and Yacht Harbours10. Rating of Individual Moorings11. Trailing in the UK12. Documentation for Trailing Abroad13.  A Summary of Statute Law Affecting Pleasure Craft14.  Reporting to Customs on Departure and Arrival15. Chartering16. International Shipping Conventions
