CURRENT BILL SUMMARY
SB 1075 - Current law provides immunity from liability for outfitters of certain nonmotorized watercraft for any injury or death to a participant of watercraft activities that results from the inherent risks of such activities. This act provides that watercraft outfitters, including those who sell, lease, or otherwise provide watercraft, shall also have the same immunity from liability for injury or death to a participant that results from the use of certain small motorized watercraft. Additionally, such outfitters shall be immune from liability for any injury or death to a watercraft participant that results from any nondefective component part or accessory which is installed or integrated into the watercraft by the participant.
