I think the key word here is Public..which means to me.."Other People" ..NOT those aboard this boat or part of this boats occupants or passengers. Just wonderin.. NB

EDIT: I think endangering yourself is not against the law..people ride motorcycles..drive trucks on the ice..jump out of airplanes..sail Solo around the world..etc..
