Our prices include the instruction, cleaning, insurance and SeaTow. All prices are subject to a sales tax of 6,5 %. Gasoline has to be paid by the customer. There are no hidden costs.

In the unlikely event that your boat has a mechanical problem, we will do our best to quickly give you another boat. If there is no other boat available, you will receive a partial refund.
