My husband injured his knee when he fell wakeboarding. My step-father knowingly exceeded the recommended speed for a beginner boarder. Where does the liability lie? We tried to help educate this man about proper towing safety, and speed recommendations, and asked him to keep the speed down. A sprain is one thing, but my husband is in a lot of pain, on disability pending an MRI and possible surgery. When we insured our PWC, we were advised about watersports insurance (if towing a skier/tuber). I do not believe my step-father has this insurance. My husband's medical insurance will pay for everything in full, but won't they want to go after the boat insurance? Should we just leave it alone, or ask my step-father to file w/his insurance?
