Conditions of hire for cruisers

1.  Bookings: A cruiser is not considered booked until the completed, signed Booking Form and a deposit of one quarter of the Total Hire Fee have reached the office of the Company and an invoice stating the terms for the balance of hire has been dispatched. For bookings on the Internet, a completed online booking followed by a confirmation from the Company will replace the requirement of the signed booking form. For bookings taken over the phone the Company Booking Terms & Conditions will be deemed to be accepted upon the dispatch of the Hirer’s booking confirmation by the company, which will include a copy of the said Terms & Conditions. The Company reserves the right to change the class/standard of cruiser that has been booked so long as it is an upgrade. The Company reserves the right to cancel or reject any booking at their discretion.
 
2.  Balance of hire fees: On payment of the deposit the Hirer becomes responsible for the whole of the hire fee and the balance must be paid on or before the day of embarkation.  Should the Hirer find they are unable to take over the cruiser they must notify the Company immediately.  The Company will retain the deposit and the Hirer remains responsible for the balance. (Unless the Hirer has subscribed to the Cancellation Scheme, See below).    
 
3.  Embarkation and accounts: Embarkation time is between 3.00pm and 5.00pm on the commencing day of the hire period.  On arrival at the Hire Base the Hirer must pay the balance of the hire fee, a refundable insurance breakage deposit of £450 (Noble Cadet), £500 (Noble Chancellor), £550 (Noble Chief), £600 (Noble Duke), £700 (Noble Captain & Noble Commander), £850 (Noble Duchess & Noble Emperor) and £100 (Outboard Motor) and the charges for any provisions and extras ordered.  The Hirer should check the inventory of the craft and ensure that ample fuel has been provided.  They will then be given a trial run and explanation of the running of the cruiser to confirm that the craft is in good running order. Hirers will be expected to ask if they are unsure of any aspect of the tuition. For repeat/experienced hirers a trial run may be foregone upon agreement of the Hirer and the instructor and the Hirer accepts that the craft is in good running order.
 
4.  Novice hirers: Novice Hirers will normally be expected to accept an additional period of free tuition prior to the cruiser being handed over to them.
 
5.  Return of cruisers: Cruisers must be returned and vacated in a clean and tidy condition to the Hire Base not later than 10.00am on the final day of the Hire Period.  Failure to comply with this condition will result in an additional charge to the Hirer of £50 per hour or part thereof.  After checking in, and the cruiser and equipment is found to be clean and undamaged, the insurance deposit will be refunded, subject to any additional costs incurred due to the Hirer’s negligence plus any other charges or incidental losses incurred by the Company. Such costs, charges or losses also include call out charges, damage to the chartered vessels, damage to other vessels including the recovery boat and damage, theft or loss to any dinghy or outboard motor. It is the responsibility of the Hirer to make any allowance for bad weather. The insurance deposit also covers any contingency for diesel fuel used during the hire period.

Non-emergency call outs will be actioned during office hours. Certain repairs such as thruster failure, toilet blockages etc. may require the return of the cruiser to our base. Call outs due to a hirer’s negligence will be chargeable against the breakage deposit.
