IMHO, as long as your NOT taking any compensation, of ANY KIND(beer, fuel,
tips,etc) I think it may be ok, however, I am pretty sure there would be a
question on insurance.

See you in Paradise!

This very issue was talked about in my Sea School class. One of the
class members was a sitting judge who also owned a small hotel. He was
taking the class so that way he could take them out and still keep
coverage on his boat. Another member was pretty creative he was a real
estate agent, and as a side business did water tours of homes(Guess
which ones got top billing). Again, he took the class so that he could
protect himself with insurance.
