T&C
These Terms & Conditions of Service (“Terms”) are a binding legal agreement between you and 305 Yachtz LLC that govern your use of the 305 Yachtz website and the use of the services rendered by 305 Yachtz, LLC. (collectively, the “305 Yachtz Platform”). The 305 Yachtz Platform offers an online venue that enables users (“Clients”) to search for, and book demise or bareboat charters on independently owned yachts that are in no way owned, operated, or controlled by 305 Yachtz, LLC. Individuals who offer their vessels or yachts for “demise” or bareboat charter use are “Owners”. Individuals who search for, book, or use services are “Charterers.” Owners offer bareboat or demise charters (“Charters”), and each Charter service offering with its corresponding description is a “Listing”. As the provider of the 305 Yachtz Platform, 305 Yachtz does not own, control, offer or manage any Listings or any of the yachts or vessels featured in any of the Listings.305 Yachtz does not employ, hire, or manage any of the crew members that may be working on any of the vessels or yachts listed. 305 Yachtz is not a party to the contracts concluded directly between Owners and Charterers, nor is 305 Yachtz a yacht brokerage firm, crew employer or insurer. 305 Yachtz is not acting as an agent in any capacity for any Owner or Charterer, except as to receive payment for Owner from any Charterer for the respective Listing.
If you charter a vessel or yacht, you are responsible for understanding and complying with all laws, rules, regulations and contracts with third parties that apply to your charter of the Listing. You, the Charterer are responsible for ensuring that you are in compliance with any and all relevant laws and regulations of any relevant government authorities.
General Terms
- Our Mission.
Our mission is to provide you access to hundreds of vessel Listings that will allow you to enjoy the Miami waterways. To learn more about a Listing review the description and photos and Guest reviews. If you have any questions, just email the contact listed.
- Searching and Booking.
2.1 Searching. You can search for vessel Listings by clicking on “Our Fleet” and reviewing the Vessel listed to see its size, passenger capacity, and rate. Please note that NO VESSEL CAN CARRY MORE THAN TWELVE (12) PASSENGERS ON BOARD AT ANY TIME. Vessels can only be used in Miami and AT NO TIME SHOULD ANY VESSEL LEAVE FLORIDA WATERS.
2.2 Booking. When you book a Listing, you are agreeing to pay all charges related to your Charter including the Listing price for the amount of time that you have booked the Charter for (depending on 4 hour, 6 hour, or 8 hour selection), sales tax, and any other items (i.e. catering, party packages, jet skis) identified during checkout (collectively, “Total Price”). When you receive the booking confirmation, a contract for the bareboat charter of the Vessel (sometimes called a “Bareboat Charter Agreement”) is formed directly between you and the Owner. The cancellation policy and any other rules, standards, policies, or requirements identified in the Listing or during checkout form part of your contract with the Owner. Be aware that each Bareboat Charter Agreement for each corresponding Vessel may be different so you should carefully review the terms of each Bareboat Charter Agreement before agreeing to the terms therein with the Owner.
- Cancellations, Travel Issues and Refunds.
In general, if you, as a Charterer you cancel a Booking, the amount refunded to you is determined by the cancellation terms set forth in the corresponding Bareboat Charter Agreement that applies to that Booking and your respective agreement with the Owner.
- Your Responsibilities and Assumption of Risk.
4.1 Your Responsibilities. You, the Charterer are responsible and liable for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of anyone you invite to join or provide access to the Vessel or Charter. For example, this means: (i) you are responsible for leaving a Vessel (and related personal property) in the condition it was in when you and your guests arrived, and (ii) you must act with integrity, treat others with respect, and comply with applicable laws at all times. If your guests include a minor or if you bring a minor to a Charter, you must be legally authorized to act on behalf of the minor and you are solely responsible for the supervision of that minor.
4.2 Your Assumption of Risk. You acknowledge that many activities carry inherent risks and agree that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you assume the entire risk arising out of your access to and use of the 305 Yachtz Platform and any Content (as defined in Section 10), including your Charter of a Vessel or any other interaction you have with a Captain or Crew whether in person or online. This means it is your responsibility to review a Vessel and the corresponding Bareboat Charter Agreement to determine whether it is suitable for you.
