Reservations

A 50% deposit of the yacht fee is required to reserve the boat and dates of your choice. Upon receipt of your reservation deposit (and boating resume, if bareboat), a charter contract will be issued and your charter dates confirmed. The balance of all charter fees, with the exception of the security deposit, is due 30 days prior to your date of departure. Security deposits may be paid at the time of departure. ANY FUNDS DUE AT THE TIME OF DEPARTURE MUST BE PAID IN CASH, TRAVELERS CHECKS, OR CERTIFIED BANK CHECK.

Security Deposits & Damage Waiver

The purchase of a mandatory non-refundable Damage Waiver is required with all charters. The Damage Waiver Fee is $29.95 per day. The Damage Waiver Fee covers any damage or loss to the vessel or its equipment over and above the amount of the refundable security deposit. The security deposit on all vessels is $350.00 - $400.00 per charter. A lost or stolen dinghy is not covered by the yachts insurance or the Damage Waiver. A submerged, lost, or stolen outboard motor is not covered by the yachts insurance or the Damage Waiver. The yachts insurance or the damage waiver, as determined by third party sail maker, does not cover any damage to sails due to severe misuse by charterer. THE SECURITY DEPOSIT MUST BE PAID IN CASH, TRAVELERS CHECKS OR CERTIFIED BANK CHECK BEFORE DEPARTURE. The security deposit, minus any deductions, will be returned within 10 days after the satisfactory return of the vessel.

Cancellation Policy

If you cancel more than thirty days prior to your date of departure, we will refund all monies received less $300.00 administrative fee. Cancellation less than thirty days before your date of departure will result in the forfeiture of all monies received by Fun In The Sun Yacht Charters.
