You see Dave, the crucial aspect of your situation – invited with no strings, you cleaned up the boat, helped unload, pitched in for gas without being asked, is the critical legal aspect of the situation. When Bluewater Photo made the requirement that riders would have to pay for gas (share fuel expenses on my dive boat), he became a business (charter) selling a service.
