5.3 Nothing on the Website may be reproduced or used without our prior written consent, save that you may print or download extracts for your own personal, non-commercial reference provided that no notice of ownership is removed or altered.
6. Accuracy of content
6.1 We take reasonable care to ensure that the information on the Website is accurate at the time of publication. However, the Website is provided for general information and promotional purposes only.
6.2 Vessel specifications, dimensions, capacities, crew numbers, equipment, photographs, itineraries, destinations, activities and rates are indicative and subject to change without notice. Photographs and video are illustrative and may not depict the specific Vessel, equipment, crew, provisioning or conditions applicable to your Charter.
6.3 No information on the Website forms part of any contract unless expressly incorporated into a Charter Agreement in writing. In the event of any inconsistency between the Website and a Charter Agreement, the Charter Agreement prevails.

7.1 Nothing on the Website constitutes an offer capable of acceptance. Rates, availability, vessels and dates displayed or quoted are invitations to treat and are subject to confirmation and to availability at the time of booking.
7.2 Submitting an enquiry form, requesting availability or receiving a quotation does not create a booking and does not oblige either party to enter into a Charter.
7.3 A binding contract arises only when we issue a written confirmation of booking and any required deposit has been received by us in cleared funds.
7.4 Each Charter is governed by the applicable Charter Agreement and by our Cancellation Policy, which are provided or made available to you before booking and which take precedence over these Terms in respect of the Charter.
8. Guest obligations
8.1 The person making a booking warrants that they are at least 18 years of age, have authority to contract on behalf of every Guest in the party, and is responsible for the acts and omissions of those Guests.

8.3 Guests are responsible for holding valid travel documents, visas and insurance, including insurance covering personal accident, medical expenses, repatriation and cancellation. We strongly recommend that all Guests obtain comprehensive travel and medical insurance before travelling.
8.4 Guests must comply at all times with the instructions of the captain and crew, with all applicable maritime, environmental, marine-park, customs and immigration regulations, and with the rules of any marina or facility visited.
9. Marine activities and assumption of risk
9.1 Boating, swimming, snorkelling, SCUBA diving, sport fishing, jet skiing, SEABOB use, watersports and other marine and excursion activities carry inherent risks, including risks of drowning, injury, illness, marine life, collision, adverse weather and sea conditions, which cannot be wholly eliminated.
9.2 Participation in any such activity is voluntary and at the Guest’s own risk. By participating, each Guest acknowledges and accepts those inherent risks.
9.3 Guests must satisfy themselves that they are physically fit and competent to participate in any activity they undertake, must hold any certification required for that activity, and must use all safety equipment provided and follow all safety briefings and instructions.
9.4 Certain activities may be provided by independent third-party operators. Where that is the case, those activities are supplied subject to that operator’s own terms, and we act only as an intermediary in arranging them.
10. Authority of the captain
10.1 The captain of the Vessel has absolute discretion in all matters affecting the safety of the Vessel, its crew and its Guests.
10.2 The captain may at any time, without liability, alter or curtail an itinerary, change or cancel a destination or activity, or return the Vessel to port, where in the captain’s judgement weather, sea state, mechanical condition, the conduct of any person on board or any other circumstance makes it prudent to do so.
10.3 The captain may refuse to embark, or may disembark at the nearest safe port, any person who in the captain’s reasonable opinion is under the influence of alcohol or drugs, is behaving in a manner that is dangerous, unlawful or offensive, or is otherwise in breach of clause 8. No refund is payable in those circumstances.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we exclude all representations, warranties, conditions and terms, whether express or implied, including as to accuracy, completeness, fitness for purpose, merchantability and non-infringement.

17. General
17.1 Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision shall be severed and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force.
17.2 Waiver. No failure or delay by us in exercising any right under these Terms operates as a waiver of that right.
