Carl Kindrich's father, a member of the Long Beach Yacht Club before he died, expressed a wish to be buried at sea. The Yacht Club

Carl Kindrich's father, a member of the Long Beach Yacht Club before he died, expressed a wish to be "buried at sea." The Yacht Club permitted the Kindrich family the use of one of its boats, without charge, for the ceremony, and Mr. Fullera good friend of Carl's fatherpiloted the boat. Portable stairs on the dock assisted the attendees in boarding. Upon returning, Fuller asked for help to tie up the boat. The steps were not there, and Carl broke his leg while disembarking to help tie up the boat. Carl sued the Yacht Club for negligence in failing to have someone on the dock to ensure that the portable steps were available. The Yacht Club contended that it was not liable because Carl made the conscious decision to jump from the moving vessel to the dock, a primary assumption of risk in the sport of boating. The plaintiff contended that he was not involved in the sport of boating, and at most his actions constituted minimal comparative negligence, the type that a jury could weigh in conjunction with the defendant's negligence in assessing damages. Decide. [Kindrich v. Long Beach Yacht Club, 84 Cal. Rptr. 3d 824 (Cal. App.)]
