CC assumes no financial responsibility if the certificate is missing or invalid. CC follows navigation regulations regarding nautical competence. Please check with your nautical authorities if you are unsure if your certificate or license is valid. Skippers can be rented if you are lacking the adequate nautical experience.

Staying overnight onboard the boat until check out in the morning is included in the boat rental. The boat should be emptied no later than 9 a.m. on Saturday morning. Inspections are carried out according to the same procedure as upon check in. Any damage will be inspected, evaluated and addressed.

If the boat is not returned in time, regardless of weather conditions the Renter must pay double rent fee for the time delay per day. In addition, the Renter must reimburse CC for costs imposed on CC if the next guest cancels their boat hire. Should the person that rented the boat, for some reason attributable to CC, end their journey in another harbour than the agreed port, CC shall be notified immediately.

4.6 Upon check out, the boat should be in a suitable condition, which means, accessible and clean both on the inside and on the outside, i.e., that the boat must be empty of both garbage and belongings. It’s also very important that the equipment on the boat is in its right place and that the dishes are taken care of (i.e. clean).

The deposit can be paid in cash or with a credit card (Visa or MasterCard ).

If equipment is missing or damages to the boat have occurred, the deposit will be withheld, fully or partially, depending on the severity of the damages, until the final cost has been determined (if the immediate solution is not possible). Repair and replacements costs are then deducted from the deposit. The Renter can sign a deposit insurance waiver. The boat is always fully insured but if you sign a deposit insurance the self-deductible is reduced. This means that a separate deposit insurance can be added to the booking before departure with your boat. It protects the person responsible for the booking from losing the deposit at damage. The separate deposit insurance consists only of a fixed price which means that the person responsible for the booking is not paying any refundable deposit at check-in. The deposit insurance does not apply to gross negligence, lost things, blocked toilet or damage caused by the use of alcohol or drugs. In the event of losses or damages caused by the use of alcohol/drugs or negligence, person responsible for the booking will be liable for the damages up to the amount of standard security deposit. If injuries on the boat have occurred, a damage report must be sent to CC immediately in order to minimize the extent of the damage.

In case of personal injury or damage to the boat, the Renter must write a report and obtain a report from a third party, such as harbour master, doctor or naval inspector. If damages cannot be repaired during the trip, and the circumstances allow the boat to be sailed, the Renter must return to home port before the lease period has expired and CC must be notified about the damages which have occurred, so that they can be able to repair them. If CC, as mentioned above, shall pay the repair costs, the portion of the rent amount corresponding to the remaining lease term will be returned to the Renter.
