Please note

The person in charge of the crew must be of legal age, responsible for the boat and the people in it. ISea Charter reserves the right to deny the delivery of the boat if the responsible does not appear apt to assume its responsibilities. In this case, only the amount of the rental will be refunded. The person responsible for the crew shall take possession of the vessel after completion of the formalities (security, inventory), the collection of administrative documents and the necessary training and navigation instructions. The renter must comply with the current navigation regulations and the instructions he receives from ISea Charter and from the local maritime authorities. Night navigation, towing, lending or boat hire are prohibited.

FUEL

The vessels are delivered with the deposits full and must be returned under the same conditions. If the boat is not returned with the deposits full, a fee of € 250 will be charged for each deposit of fuel used. If, due to tides, it is not possible to enter the dock at the end of the day to refuel the boats, ISea Charter will calculate the fuel consumed and this will be charged to the customer.
