I really wouldnt feel comfortable with it but I may would consider to just a couple people. People that I know would take as good of care as I try to. I would still be very uneasy.

Its one thing when you tear up your own stuff, but its another thing when someone else does it.

Exactly. But I would rather tear up my own stuff than someone else's. It would have to be someone that I know is careful and would take responsibility for any damage.

What if the person borrowing your boat has a costly breakdown (though no fault of there own). I know deep down I would still blame them.

Would let, brother, ex brother in-law, ex father in-law, probably 4 close friends. All experienced boaters. Wouldn't let anyone that doesn't have experience in a boat of equal size and horsepower borrow it.

I've let friends and neighbors borrow my tiller driven 16 ft aluminum v hull. It's pretty rugged and you'd have to work pretty hard to mess it up.

I don't even borrow my dad's. I have I'm the past but, I won't anymore. I don't want to be responsible if anything would happen. I know I don't have 30k to replace it if something does.

I've always looked at it this way, if someone needs to borrow my truck, absolutely. That means they need it. Nobody "needs" to borrow a boat.

Doubt I would let anyone borrow besides my paran because I know he would replace anything if he broke it and I know he wouldn't try anything stupid and be very careful in it.

I will let a few close friends borrow my boat an my old man. The only reason I would let them is because I know they can afford to replace it if something was to happen.
