I could slide in here with some mildly curious bit about the maritime law and ignore the fact that I've been remiss in not regularly posting to this blog. But if I did that, it'd leave me with that gnawing feeling of having ignored something that needs attention like when you're on the boat and you know the fuel filters could use a change and that stuffing box is weeping too much. You get the idea. So let me just take a few questions and get this over with so we can move on.
Where've you been, bro? I've been running around. I left my former law firm in New York to start my own maritime law practice. You can take a look at what we're doing at www.fulweilerlaw.com.
Oh, yea. Where's your office? My principal office is in Quonset Point, RI and I continue to maintain practices in Manhattan and in Fort Lauderdale, FL. I pretty much litigate up and down the East and Gulf Coasts.
So you've moved to Rhode Island? Yup. This is where I'm originally from and so it was a natural evolution. Plus, I have big expectations for Quonset and I wanted to be on the front lines, so to speak.
Quick legal question, okay? If my friend hit a navigation buoy does he have to report that? There's a regulation on this issue which you can find at 46 C.F.R. ยง 4.05-20. My read is that your friend will need to report the incident to the nearest Officer in Charge, Marine Inspection Office.
Underway and making way.
