OVERVIEW OF THE SERVICE

The Services can be used to facilitate the listing and booking of Vessels. Such Vessels are included in Listings on the Services by Owners. You may view Listings as an unregistered visitor to the Services; however, if you wish to book a Vessel or create a Listing, you must first register to create a Boatur Account (defined below). As stated above, Boatur makes available a platform or marketplace with related technology for Renters and Owners to meet online and arrange for bookings of Vessels. Boatur is not an Owner or operator of Vessels nor is it a provider of Vessels. Boatur does not own, sell, broker, market, resell, furnish, provide, rent, re-rent, manage and/or control Vessels. Boatur's responsibilities are limited to: (i) facilitating the availability of the Services and (ii) serving as the limited agent of each Owner for the sole purpose of accepting payments from Renters on behalf of the Owner.

NOTE: Boatur’s Services do not include control over the content contained in any of the listings and/or the condition, legality or suitability of any Vessels. Boatur has zero control over and therefore disclaims any and all liability related to any and all listings and Vessels. Therefore, all bookings are made at the renters and owners sole and exclusive risk.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE ENTIRE RISK ARISING OUT OF YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES AND CONTENT, YOUR LISTING OR BOOKING OF AND USE OF ANY VESSELS VIA THE SERVICES, AND ANY CONTACT YOU HAVE WITH OTHER USERS OF THE SERVICES WHETHER IN PERSON OR ONLINE REMAINS WITH YOU. NEITHER BOATUR NOR ANY OTHER PARTY INVOLVED IN CREATING, PRODUCING, OR DELIVERING THE SERVICES, CONTENT WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, SERVICE INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER DAMAGE OR SYSTEM FAILURE OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, OR FOR ANY DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL OR BODILY INJURY OR EMOTIONAL DISTRESS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS, FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES OR CONTENT, FROM ANY COMMUNICATIONS, INTERACTIONS OR MEETINGS WITH OTHER USERS OF THE SERVICES OR OTHER PERSONS WITH WHOM YOU COMMUNICATE OR INTERACT AS A RESULT OF YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, OR FROM YOUR LISTING, BOOKING, OR USE OF ANY VESSEL VIA THE SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT BOATUR HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

MINIMUM AGE

The Services are intended solely for persons who are 21 or older. Any access to or use of the Services by anyone under 21 is expressly prohibited. By accessing or using the Services you represent and warrant that you are 21 or older.

REGISTRATION

In order to access certain features of the Services, and to book a Vessel or create a Listing, you must register to create an account (“Boatur Account”). You agree and promise to provide accurate, current and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current and complete. Boatur reserves the right to suspend or terminate your Boatur Account and your access to the Services if any of the information you provide is inaccurate, not current or incomplete.

PASSWORD

As part of the Boatur Account registration process, you will be required to create a password. You are responsible for safeguarding your password. You agree that you will not disclose your password to any third party and that you will take sole responsibility for any activities or actions under your Boatur Account, whether or not you have authorized such activities or actions. You will immediately notify Boatur of any unauthorized use of your Boatur Account. You may not give, lend, sell, rent, or lease your Boatur Account to anyone else.

Owner’s Vessel Listings

As an Owner Member, you may create Listings. You will be asked a variety of questions about the Vessel to be listed, including, but not limited to, the value, location, size, features, availability of the Vessel, pricing, related rules, and financial terms. Pricing should reflect the size and qualities of the Vessel. You acknowledge and agree that Listings will be made publicly available via the Services. Other Members will be able to book your Vessel via the Services based upon the information provided in your Listing. You understand and agree that once a Renter requests a booking of your Vessel, the price for such booking may not be altered.

You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for any and all Listings you post. Accordingly, you represent and warrant that any Listing you post and the booking of, or Renter use of, a Vessel in a Listing you post (i) will not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties and (ii) will (a) be in compliance with all applicable laws, tax requirements, and rules and regulations that may apply to any Vessel or service included in a Listing you post, including, but not limited to, insurance requirements, coast guard regulations, zoning laws, marina regulations, and laws governing rentals and operation of Vessels and (b) not conflict with the rights of third parties.

Owner represents and warrants to Boatur and Renter(s) that any/all hull numbers or similar Vessel identification numbers match any relevant federal, state or local Vessel registrations.

NOTE: Boatur assumes no responsibility for an Owner's compliance with any applicable laws, rules and regulations. Boatur reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, but without obligation to do so, to remove or disable access to any Listing for any reason, including Listings that Boatur, in its sole discretion, considers to be objectionable for any reason, in violation of these Terms or otherwise harmful to the Services. These may include inspections of Vessels by Boatur or as a consequence of guest, user or renter feedback, reviews or complaints.

Owners and Members understand and agree that Boatur does not act as an insurer or as a contracting agent for you as an Owner. If a Renter requests a booking of your Vessel and uses your Vessel, any agreement you enter into with such Renter is between you and the Renter, Boatur is not a party thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Boatur serves as the limited authorized payment agent of the Owner for the sole purpose of accepting payments from Renters on behalf of the Owner and is responsible for transmitting such payments to the Owner. When an Owner or Member creates a Listing, you may also choose to include certain lawful requirements that must be met by the Members or Renters who are eligible to request a booking of your Vessel, including, but not limited to, requiring Members to have a profile picture or verified phone number, in order to book your Vessel.

Any Member wishing to book Vessels included in Listings with such requirements must meet these requirements. Notwithstanding, Boatur promises no attempt to confirm or verify such information and Boatur’s platform services do not provide a direct means for conveying this information.

Boatur provides limited resources to Owners to help make informed decisions about which Members you choose to confirm for booking your Vessel. You acknowledge and agree that, as an Owner, you not Boatur, are responsible for your own decisions, acts and omissions. Notwithstanding this provision, all bookings are made without the approval of the Host. The Host has the absolute right to review any booking that has been made and for any lawful reason cancel the booking through the Services prior to the Departure time.

VERIFICATION

Boatur cannot and does not make any attempt to verify or confirm the accuracy of information provided about Members, Owners, Renters of Vessels. That is not a duty or obligation of Boatur. Even though these Terms require Members to provide accurate information, Boatur does not attempt to confirm any Member's purported identity or other information provided by such Member. You are responsible for determining the identity and suitability of others who you contact via the Services. Boatur is not responsible for any damage or harm resulting from your interactions with other Members. By consenting and using these Boatur’s Services, you agree that any legal remedy or liability that you seek to obtain for actions or omissions of other Members or other third parties will be limited to a claim against those particular Members or other third parties and you agree not to attempt to impose liability on, or seek any legal remedy from Boatur. Boatur strongly encourages direct communication among and between other Members on the Services regarding any bookings or Listings made by you. NOTE: This limitation shall not apply to any claim by an Owner against Boatur regarding the remittance of payments received from a Renter by Boatur on behalf of an Owner, which instead shall be subject to the limitations described in the section below entitled “Limitation of Liability.”

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Boatur requires that all persons serving as a Captain for a voyage are lawfully registered and licensed to do so and must disclose and provide the Captain credentials and/or licensure to do so but, Boatur makes no promises about truth, accuracy of said license or whether such license is current and in good standing

CANCELLATIONS AND FINANCIAL TERMS

If you are an Owner and a booking is requested for your Vessel via the Services, you may be required to either confirm or reject the booking within 24 hours of when the booking is requested (as determined by Boatur in its sole discretion) or the booking request may be automatically canceled. When a booking is requested via the Services, we will share with you (i) the first and last name of the Renter who has requested the booking, and, (ii) a link to the Renter's Boatur Account profile page, so that you can view such information before confirming or rejecting the booking. If you are unable to confirm or decide to reject a booking of a Vessel within such 24-hour period, any amounts collected by Boatur for the requested booking may be refunded to the applicable Renter's credit card and any pre-authorization of such credit card will be released. This refunded amount will be the initial total (less taxes and third party credit card processor fees) from which, Boatur calculates its 20% fee. The remaing balance is the refund.

For example: the initial booking total was $100 dollars; taxes and credit card processing fees totalled $7.00; Boatur’s fee would be 20% of $93.00 ($18.60) leaving a refund amount of $74.40 ($93 – $18.60).

If You cancel : Because Bookings are made without the approval of the Host, both Hosts and Renters each receive booking confirmations at point of purchase. If either a Host or a Guest uses the Services to cancel the booking prior to departure, send an email, text message or message via the Services confirming such cancellation, depending on the selections you make via the Services.

If the Renter requests a booking from one of the alternative listings and the Owner associated with such alternative listing confirms the Renter's requested booking, then the Renter agrees to pay Boatur the Total Fees relating to the confirmed booking for the Vessel in the alternative listing, in accordance with these Terms.

The fees displayed in each Listing are comprised of the Vessel Fees and the Reservation Fees. Where applicable, Taxes may be charged in addition to the Reservation Fees and Vessel Fees. The Vessel Fees, the Reservation Fees and applicable Taxes are collectively referred to in these Terms as the “Total Fees”. The amounts due and payable by a Renter solely relating to an Owner's Vessel which are actually collected by Boatur are the Vessel Fees. Please note that it is the Owner, and not Boatur which determines the Vessel Fees. The Vessel Fees may include cleaning fees and / or pre-paid fuel charges, at the Owner's discretion.

Refueling Fees: The full amount of any refueling fee is limited to that fee identified at checkout. Once the Renter proceeds with the checkout, there are no additional fees for refueling. The Host’s commitment to a fuel price at checkout is absolute.

For example, if the Host identified a refueling fee of $150.00 at booking checkout and the actual refueling fee (for whatever reason) winds up being $175.00, the Host, not the Renter is responsible for the difference.

However, if there is no refueling fee charged at checkout, Renter becomes responsible for returning vessel to Owner with a full tank. If the vessel is returned to Owner with less than a full tank, Renter consent to be invoiced the full cost to Owner to refuel the tank.

EXCLUSIVITY WITH BOATUR

As an Owner, you agree to use the Service to communicate and facilitate a rental with a Renter. You agree not to take any action directly or indirectly to circumvent the Service Fee Policy. If you do so, you agree that Boatur may charge you a fee up to $1,000 per incident in addition to the Service Fees otherwise owed to Boatur. Boatur may collect the fee from future bookings or otherwise. The parties agree this amount is a good faith effort to compensate Boatur for damages, not as a punitive measure.

MINIMUM AGE to RENT

The minimum age to rent a Vessel is 21.

INSURANCE

It is the Renter's responsibility to review the insurance for their rental. Please review any insurance policy carefully, and in particular please make sure that you are familiar with and understand any exclusions to, and any deductibles that may apply for, such insurance policy, including, but not limited to, whether or not your insurance policy will cover the actions or inaction of, or relating to Renters or any hired Captains (and the individuals the Renter invites to the rental, if applicable) while on the Vessel.

BOATUR IS A LIMITED PAYMENT AGENT for OWNER

Each Owner hereby appoints Boatur as the Owner's limited agent solely for the purpose of collecting payments made by Renters on behalf of the Owner. Each Owner agrees that payment of fees by a Renter to Boatur shall be considered the same as a payment made directly to the Owner and the Owner will make the Vessel available to Renter in the agreed upon manner as if the Owner has received the Vessel Fees. Each Owner agrees that Boatur may, in accordance with the cancellation policy selected by the Owner and reflected in the relevant Listing, (i) permit the Renter to cancel the booking and (ii) refund to the Renter that portion of the fees specified. In accepting appointment as the limited authorized payment agent of the Owner, Boatur assumes no liability for any acts or omissions of the Owner.

Fraud: From time to time, we may become aware of users attempting to conduct a transaction that would involve an unauthorized payment method or a fraudulent payment method. Ideally, we hope to be able to assist users in avoiding such transactions, but we assume no liability or responsibility to either do so or to inform users of any such actual or suspected activity.

In the event of any suspected fraud, 1) first contact law enforcement and banking authorities, the 2) contact Boatur directly so that the third party payment processor can also be notified. .

Please keep in mind that you are liable for all losses you incur when lost or stolen payment credentials or accounts are used to purchase products or services from you. Boatur does not and will not insure you against losses caused by fraud under any circumstances. For example, if someone pretends to be a legitimate Renter but is not you will be responsible for any resulting costs, including credit card disputes. If Boatur works with you to assist you or law enforcement in recovering lost funds, Boatur is not liable to you, or responsible for your financial losses or any other consequences of such fraud.

NO CHARGE for LISTINGS

Please note that Boatur does not currently charge fees for the creation of Listings. However, you acknowledge and agree that Boatur reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to charge you for and collect fees from you for the creation of Listings, or for other features of the Services. Please note that Boatur will provide notice of any such additional fees via the Services, prior to implementing such fees.

BOOKINGS and FINANCIAL TERMS for RENTERS

Owners, not Boatur, are responsible for honoring any confirmed bookings and making available any Vessels reserved through the Services. When a Renter chooses to enter into a transaction with an Owner for the booking of a Vessel, the Renter agrees and understands that they are entering into an agreement with the Owner and agrees to accept any terms, conditions, rules and restrictions associated with such Vessel imposed by the Owner. Renter acknowledges and agrees that Renter, not Boatur, is responsible for performing the obligations of any such agreements, that Boatur is not a party to such agreements, and that, with the exception of its obligations hereunder to pay Vessel Fees to the applicable Owner, Boatur disclaims all liability arising from or related to any such agreements. Renter acknowledges and agrees that, notwithstanding the fact that Boatur is not a party to the agreement between Renter and the Owner, Boatur acts as the Owner's limited payment agent for the sole and limited purpose of accepting payments from Renter on behalf of the Owner.

Owner listings for Vessels will specify the Total Fees. As noted above, the Owner is required to either confirm or reject the booking within 24 hours of when the booking is set to depart (as determined by Boatur in its sole discretion) or the requested booking may be automatically canceled. If a requested booking is canceled (i.e. not confirmed by the applicable Owner), a partial refund of the Vessel Owner’s fees collected by Boatur will be refunded to such Renter, depending on the selections the Renter makes via the Services, and any pre-authorization of such Renter's credit card will be released, if applicable.

You agree to pay Boatur all fees for any booking requested, if such requested bookings are confirmed by the applicable Owner. Once Boatur receives confirmation of your booking from the applicable Owner, Boatur will collect all fees in accordance with these Terms and the pricing terms set forth in the listing. Boatur cannot control any fees that may be charged to a Renter by his or her bank related to Boatur's collection of the Total Fees, and Boatur disclaims all liability in this regard.

You will be asked to provide billing information such as name, billing address and credit card information either to Boatur or its third party payment processor. You agree to pay Boatur for any confirmed bookings made in connection with your account in accordance with these Terms by one of the methods described. You hereby authorize the collection of such amounts by charging the credit card provided as part of requesting the booking, either directly by Boatur or indirectly, via Boatur’s appointed third party online payment processor. You also authorize Boatur to charge your credit card in the event of damage caused on a Vessel as contemplated under “Damage to Vessels” below and for Security Deposits, if applicable. If you are directed to Boatur's third party payment processor, you may be subject to terms and conditions governing use of that third party's service and that third party's personal information collection practices. Please review such terms and conditions and privacy policy before using the services. Once your confirmed booking transaction is complete you will receive a confirmation email summarizing your confirmed booking.

ERRORS and CHARGEBACKS

Boatur will take steps to rectify any payment processing errors that we become aware of. These steps may include crediting or debiting (as appropriate) the same payment method used for the original payout to or payment by you, so that you end up receiving or paying the correct amount.

PAYMENT PROCESSOR TERMS (STRIPE)

At this time, Payment processing services on Boatur are provided by Stripe and are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”). You agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement. You also authorize Boatur to share with Stripe transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe.

If at any time Boatur begins using a different third party payment processor, you will be promptly notified and hereby agree to be bound by any such terms/conditions of this third party payment processor that are reasonable and customary.

SECURITY DEPOSITS

Every listing identifies a Security Deposit. For all booking of a Vessel, Boatur will, in its capacity as the payment agent of the Owner, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a pre-authorization of the Renter's credit card in the amount the Owner determines for the Security Deposit within a reasonable time prior to the Renter's check-in at the applicable Owner's Vessel. Boatur will also use its commercially reasonable efforts to address Owners' requests and claims related to Security Deposits. Boatur is not responsible for administering or accepting any claims by Owners related to Security Deposits, and disclaims any and all liability in this regard.

DAMAGE to VESSELS

Renter is responsible for leaving the Vessel in the condition it was in at delivery, fair wear and tear excepted. You acknowledge and agree that, as a Renter, you are responsible for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of any individuals who you invite to, or otherwise provide access to the Vessel. If a Vessel Owner claims that the Vessel has been damaged during the rental and provides evidence of damage, including but not limited to, photographs, or other evidence you agree to pay the cost of repairing the damage or replacing the damaged items with equivalent items. After being notified of the claim and given forty-eight (48) hours to respond, the payment will be charged to and taken from the credit card on file in Renter’s account. Boatur also reserves the right to charge the credit card on file in your Boatur Account, or otherwise collect payment. If we are unable to charge the credit card on file or otherwise collect payment from you, you agree to remit payment for any damage to the Vessel to the applicable Vessel Owner.

Both Renter and Vessel Owner agree to cooperate with and assist Boatur in good faith, and to provide Boatur with such information and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by Boatur, in connection with any complaints or claims made by Members relating to Vessels or any personal or other property located at a Vessel or with respect to any investigation undertaken by Boatur or a representative of Boatur regarding use or abuse of the Site, Application or the Services. If you are a Renter, upon Boatur's reasonable request, and to the extent you are reasonably able to do so, you agree to participate in mediation or similar resolution process with a Vessel Owner, at no cost to you, which process will be conducted by Boatur or a third party selected by Boatur, with respect to losses for which the Vessel Owner is requesting payment from Boatur under these terms. When an insurance claim is filed the Renter's Security Deposit will be captured and if applicable used to cover the insurance deductible.

CANCELLATIONS and REFUNDS

Voyages may only be canceled before appointed start time.

When a renter cancels a booking before the booking is confirmed by an Owner, Boatur will cancel the Host’s Fee; Boatur’s several processing fees cannot be canceled. The balance of the charges will be refunded to the Rener’s payment card within a commercially reasonable time.

If an Owner cancels a confirmed booking made via the Services, (i) Boatur will refund a partial amount of the Total Fees, which is comprised of the Host’s Fees, within a commercially reasonable time of the cancellation. If the Renter requests a booking from an alternative Listings and the Owner associated with such alternative Listing confirms the Renter's requested booking, then the Renter agrees to pay Boatur the fees relating to the confirmed booking for the Vessel in the alternative Listing, in accordance with those

Timely requests for a Voyage refund must be sought after Voyage end time, and up to 24 hours thereafter. Untimely requests are denied.

Regardless of cancellation/refund reason, Boatur’s 20% fee and the several processing fees are earned upon successful use of the services and are, therefore, retained by Boatur, not refunded.

TAXES

Boatur observes and complies strictly with all applicable Federal, state and local tax laws and regulations. Renters’ compliance with tax law and regulations is the sole duty and responsibility of renters, not Boatur. Owners’ compliance with tax law and regulations is the sole duty and responsibility of owners, not Boatur.
