Perhaps consider a series of minor issues that slowly build to a catastrophe, instead of a single disastrous event. Small leaks shorting the battery, crew getting sick, food spoilt, watermaker defect...

Re: Guitar players and musicians on board?

I have a washburn rover travel guitar on board, standard neck on a tiny body. OK sound, main advantage is the bombproof box it comes in.

Re: CPAP and batteries

No experience, but it depends how many amps it draws and how many amp/hours your battery bank has.My guess is you could run it easily through an inverter off the batteries.

Re: Non US citizen - state registered boat - unflagged and no nationality - a good id

I got on the phone with BoatUS and explained that while my kids (18 and 20 at the time)are on the title, I would be the master of the vessel and responsible for the premium. This worked.

If you have kids who are US citizens, transfer title to them at no cost (once tax is paid)in Md. Then document the vessel.
