AGREEMENT TO HIRE When You request a booking you are making an offer to hire a boat on these Conditions.

A provisional or conditional booking is not binding and You may cancel it at any time before the Booking Confirmation is sent out to You by the Company. Similarly the Company may hire the boat to another party in place of you at any time before a Booking Confirmation has been sent to You. The entire Agreement between You and the Company is contained in these Conditions, the booking request and the Booking Confirmation. Nothing in these Conditions affects Your statutory rights. PRICES AND PAYMENT The Company’s advertised Prices are in pounds sterling and include Value Added Tax and, where applicable, Insurance Premium Tax. If the rates of VAT, IPT or any other government tax are changed so that a different rate applies to your hire any difference will be charged or refunded to You as the case may be. The Company reserves the right to correct errors in advertised or quoted prices at the time of booking Confirmation. Payment is deemed to have been made when cleared funds are received in the Company’s bank account. The Deposit is payable at the time of the booking request. The deposit is as shown on the Booking Form. The balance of the price, including Fuel, Car Parking for a maximum of 2 cars per boat, and Damage Waiver, is due eight weeks before the start date shown in the hire invoice. Time of payment shall be of the essence of the Agreement. For bookings made less than eight weeks before the start date You must pay the full price at the time of the booking request. The Company may charge interest at 3% p.a over Bank of England base rate on any money which is overdue from the due date until the actual date of full payment.

The full names and ages of all members of Your party must be provided to the Company at the time of booking. All changes in Your party (the addition, substitution or removal of any member of the party) which take place at any time after the Booking Confirmation has been issued (including during the hire period) must be communicated in writing and approved by the Company (such approval is not to be unreasonably withheld).

In such a case the Company shall be entitled to recover any loss, damage and expense from the monies already paid by You and if this is insufficient to cover its loss it shall be entitled to bring a claim against you for the balance of such claim. Company’s right to decline handover for safety reasons. The Company may cancel your booking and refuse to hand the boat over to you if, in its reasonable opinion, You are unsuitable to take charge of the boat for any reason that may adversely affect the safety of any person or property.

Company’s right to repossess during the hire The Company may repossess the boat at any time after commencement of the Hire Period if in the reasonable opinion of the Company You are unsuitable to be in charge of the boat for any reason affecting the safety of any person or property including in particular if You or any member of your party is or appears to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs or if You are not behaving responsibly or if there has been a material breach of the terms of this Agreement. CANCELLATIONS AND CHANGES REQUESTED BY YOU The Agreement is a legally binding contract and may only be cancelled in accordance with these Conditions. If You want to cancel or change Your booking you must give the Company written notice. The date of receipt of the written notice shall be the effective cancellation date but in order to increase the prospects of re-letting the boat You should pre-advise the Company of the impending cancellation by telephone.

The boat must be returned to Silsden and vacated by You by 9.00 am on the end date and it is Your responsibility to allow sufficient time to ensure timely return.
