Abstract

This Law makes provision for the registration of ships in the Guernsey register of British ships and navigation in Guernsey waters and related matters. Special rules are made for fishing vessel construction and survey and registration of fishing vessels. The register shall be so constituted as to distinguish, in a separate part, registrations of fishing vessels. A fishing vessel, entitled to be registered, or wholly-owned by persons qualified to be owners of British ships, but is not properly registered, which fishes for profit shall be liable to forfeiture and the skipper, the owner and any charterer of the vessel shall each be guilty of an offence.
