CANCELLATION POLICY:

# Cancellation by client:

If the Client requires canceling the scheduled yacht hire for whatever reason, the Client must quickly notify us through email of the cancellation. The cancellation fee you'll pay may vary depending on time you make it:

• If you cancel up to 30 calendar days before the start of your accommodation, you may be charged up to 50% of the full accommodation rate.

• If you cancel less than 30 calendar days before the start of your accommodation, you may be charged up to 100% of the full accommodation rate.

• However, if we or you manage to find another client for the same period you canceled, you may not be charged at all.

The cancellation fees are subject to change based on when we receive your written cancellation notice. In rare circumstances, such as unanticipated emergencies (such as a death in the family, a major sudden illness, or a significant accident), we might let you use the money you've already paid as a down payment for a subsequent reservation made within a year. There will be a 100% cancellation fee and no refund if you don't show up for check-in (non-show up) or depart the vessel before the scheduled check-out time (early abandonment).

# Cancellation by company:

You will have two choices if the company must cancel your reservation for whatever reason:

• They can reserve another boat for you, either from their own fleet or one identical in size and features if possible. If the new boat is less expensive than the old one, they will refund the difference based on the current price lists of both boats, utilizing the same discounts you received for the initial booking. The new boat is subject to the same booking conditions.

• You have the option of receiving a complete refund of all money paid.

SECURITY DEPOSIT:

• Security Deposit: Before you start your yacht trip, you have to give the Company some money as a deposit. This can be in cash or paid with a credit card they accept.

• Getting Deposit Back: After your trip, they'll give all the deposit money back unless something goes wrong, like damage to the boat or missing stuff, or if you didn't follow the rules.

• How Much They Keep: If there's a big problem, they keep everything. For smaller issues, they keep some money for repairs and costs, plus a little extra for handling. If the boat can't be used for the next trip because of damage, they keep everything to cover their expenses.

• Skipper's Costs: If you hire a professional skipper from them, the deposit can't be used to pay for their mistakes.

• Serious Problems: If you do something really bad, like sail drunk, sail alone when you shouldn't, or break important rules, you'll have to pay for all the expenses, not just the deposit. You need to pay these extra costs within a month after your trip ends.

• Lost Equipment: If you lose stuff like a dinghy or engine, you have to pay for it within a week after your trip.

INSURANCE:

• Accepting Risks: When you go on a yacht trip, you're agreeing to take on all the possible problems and dangers that can happen. This includes any harm that might come to you or your crew.

• Your Responsibility: You have to be careful and use the yacht safely. If something bad happens, like accidents, injuries, or things getting damaged or lost (during or after your trip), it's your responsibility, and the Company isn't to blame.

• Insurance: The boats have insurance for damage to the boat itself and for harm to other people or things. But if the sails get damaged, you have to pay for it. Insurance won't cover your personal stuff or stuff you bring on the boat, and it won't pay for things you break on purpose or because you weren't careful.

• Get Travel and Health Insurance: It's a smart idea for you and your crew to buy travel and health insurance when you book your trip. This way, you're protected in case something goes wrong while you're on your adventure.

CHECK-IN:

• Getting the Boat: When you get the yacht, you need to provide some paperwork and IDs for everyone on board. You'll also check the boat's condition and what's on it with a Company person, and you'll sign to say it's all good. If you say it's okay, you can't later complain about things that were broken or missing but not noticed at the time.

• Previous Damage: If some parts of the boat are messed up from previous trips, but it doesn't make things unsafe, you can't cancel or get a lower price. It's not the Company's fault, it's from what a previous customer did.

• Returning the Boat: When you give the boat back, it should have a full tank of fuel and water, just like when you got it.

• Proving You Can Sail: You might have to show that you know how to sail the boat. If you're not good enough, the Company might hire a skipper for you, and you have to pay for that. If you say no to the skipper, your contract ends, and you don't get your money back.

CHECK-OUT:

• When you give the boat back, they'll check if the fuel tank is full. If it's not, you have to pay for the fuel you used, plus a service fee.

• If there's any damage to the boat, you'll have to pay for that, as explained in the "Security Deposit" part.

• If you return the boat to a different place than you agreed, you have to pay for all the transport costs, including expenses for the next person who rents the boat, and a penalty fee of 300 EUR.

• If you're late in returning the boat, you'll be fined. Delays longer than 3 hours get a big fine, plus extra costs because of the delay. Bad weather isn't a good excuse because you need to be close to where you started for the last 48 hours.

• If you want to extend your trip, tell the Company right away. They'll check if it's okay, and if it is, they'll do the paperwork for the extra days once you've paid.

DAMAGES DURING CHARTER:

• If something happens to the yacht during your trip, and they fix it within a day after you tell them, you can't ask for any money back.

• But if it takes more than a day to fix, and it was a big problem that kept you from using the yacht, you can ask for some money back for that time.

• You'll only get this refund if the problem was the Company's fault, like if they didn't take good care of the yacht.

• If the problem is so bad that the yacht has to go back to the base for repairs, they'll try to fix it in time for the next customers. They'll only give you money back for the days you couldn't use the yacht if it was their fault.

• If something really serious happens, like big damage, the engine breaks, or someone gets hurt, you have to tell the Company right away and get official reports from other authorities. If you don't tell them and there are no official records, they'll think it happened because you weren't careful, and you'll have to pay for it.

LIABILITIES OF CHARTER COMPANY:

• You'll get a clean yacht with a full tank of fuel and water.

• They'll follow standard check-in and check-out procedures.

• If you have special requests, they'll try to help, but they don't have to, and you can't ask for money if they can't do it all.

• If the yacht isn't ready within 4 hours of your agreed start time, you can ask for some money back based on the delay.

• If it's over 24 hours late, you can ask for a similar-sized replacement yacht. If they can't find one, you can get money back for the days you missed. But they won't pay more than what you paid.

• They're not responsible for delays due to big events like natural disasters, wars, strikes, or bad weather.
