Boat in distress question
I towed a fellow fisherman in yesterday, dead battery, he was about three miles from the boat launch. They waved me down using a coat and air horn. Sadly before I helped them, they had waved another boat in who came within 50 yds, had a look and decided they had better things to do and left without exchanging a word. Second time on this lake I have towed someone in that others had ignored. The first time I had relayed my story to a friend and he told me he was pretty sure it was illegal to not help on the water. I did not look into it then but after yesterdays events I Googled it and found this. Would it apply in the circumstance I outlined? Just curious.
