Re:[baba] BOAT/US insurance

I have never in the past understood why marina's did not always make this a
requirement - this seems to be the trend.

A few years ago, a Baba 40 in my marina was resting on supports on the
ground. After a few weeks of rain, the ground got soggy and the supports
collapsed. Luckily, both the marina and the boat owner had the same
insurance company (not Boat US).
