From what I understand and what I've been told, "legally" the only way someone can legally accept buy-in money for a trip, "including chipping in for gas" is only if the "captain" has a captains license. Now we all know that is impossible to enforce but pretty sure that is how the law is on the books.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
