There was a vicious nor'easter in my area last night. I went down to the marina today and a couple of boats had been blown off their blocks - a very new and expensive 50' sailboat had obviously been blown sideways off its blocks into a mid '00s Tiara, causing extensive damage to the powerboat. That got me wondering who pays out in that situation? I was thinking about acts of god, the marina contract, the boat owner's insurance, and in this case the insurance of the boat that had clearly blown over into the Tiara.
How does this sort of thing usually play out? Very sad for the owners of both boats - and the guys in the marina too who are doubtless fielding calls from a pair of very angry and upset owners.
