I also have no clue on BVI law but if you possess a captains ticket in the US. You own what happens on the boat if you are anywhere on the boat. Even if you a just a guest hitching a ride and never near the helm.

Somehow the boat ended up way up on the rocks. That means high speed.


Where do you get all this information???


Again I am not a fan of jailing people as a result of an accident where there is no evidence of intent to harm or malice. Not all will agree with that.

Here is one picture of the large heavy 30 foot boat the next day.

Further passengers were ejected and multiple passengers were injured all of that points to high speed collision and rapid deceleration. Back the real simple forensics. What speed did that boat plane at and was that boat on plane. No matter who was steering. The law of the sea. The master in command owns it. There is no getting out of that.
