Rules #2

If a man has lent his boat to a boatman, and the boatman has been careless and the boat has been sunk or lost, the boatman shall restore a boat to the owner.

This law mean that if you lent a bout to someone and that someone make your boat sink he shall restore the boat

I agree with the punishment because they have to buy a new bout for the owner because he lent the bout for him to use.

I think that his law is still exist today.
