<p class="MsoNormal">Here is one for you all… never seen this before.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">One of my clients “bareboat chartered” a large boat. Signed a “one year charter” agreement. She moved in July 1<sup>st</sup>.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The agreement says in multiple places that it is not like a tenancy and the occupant isn’t protected by the RLTA.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, the purpose of the agreement is clearly for housing.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Owner now wants to rescind the agreement and force her to vacate. The agreement does contain some weasel clauses about being able to terminate it if it isn’t mutually working out. She hasn’t done anything wrong or violated the agreement,
the owner just seems to want to charge more money because his own moorage expense has increased.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone have any insights into whether this sort of situation is covered by LL-T law? I am thinking there must be some analogies to people leasing out motor homes and whatnot.
<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">FYI, the location is in Seattle.<u></u><u></u></p>
