A deposit of 25% is payable at the time of acceptance of the booking and is not refundable in the event of a cancellation by the client. |

It is company policy not to allow on board any contraband, drugs or other illegal substances.

The minimum age for all practical courses is 16 years unless specifically agreed in writing with the school at the time of booking. |

For exam courses the boat is made available on a bare boat charter basis and the client is responsible for food, mooring fees and any breakages during the examination period. The boat must be returned to the Company in a good clean condition. A cleaning levy of 80 Euros may be charged should this condition not be met. The Client is responsible to the RYA for examination fees on RYA practical courses. |

In the event of dispute concerning RYA courses and examinations not being settled by mutual agreement, it is agreed that the president of the British Law Society shall elect an arbitrator whose decision shall be final. In all other respects, the Company is a Spanish company, governed by Spanish law. |
