Terms and conditions - Location bateaux a moteur, Location bateaux Genève - Boat Club
Location bateaux a moteur, Location bateaux Genève - Boat Club
Boat-Club makes one or more boats (hereinafter the “Boat”) available to the Client against payment, according to a schedule (see art. 2) and a price (see art. 7) determined on the website http://www.Boat-Club.ch (hereinafter the “Website”)
Article 2. Schedule of use
The schedule of use of the Boat is established exclusively by Boat-Club and made available through the Website. The schedule of use can be modified according to the conditions available on the Website. As an exception, Boat-Club may modify the schedule of use at its discretion if maintenance or repairs of the boat so require.
Boat-Club has entered into an accident insurance policy that covers damage. However, this insurance policy provides for a deductible (see security deposit) of CHF 1,000 (one thousand) per claim payable by the Client.
A security deposit of the insurance deductible amount will be collected by Boat-Club for the season. This amount will be deposited into a Boat-Club bank account and will be carried over automatically to the following year. It is not interest bearing.
At the Client’s request, the deposit can be returned at the end of the season, if the Client has not given rise to any claim and no longer owes any sum of money in any capacity to Boat-Club.
The Client will be considered a “new client” in accordance with article 6 of this contract, if he wishes to register for another season after the return of the deposit.
After three consecutive years of non-renewal of the rental contract, if the client has not requested in writing the return of his deposit by 30 September of the third year, it will definitively revert to Boat-Club, without further advance notice.
The Client is required to check the condition of the Boat before each use. To this effect, a checklist is automatically sent with each booking confirmation. The checklist indicates various points to check before each use of the booked Boat. In case of defect, in particular loss of material or damage, the
Client should immediately contact Boat-Club.
In the event of a claim, the Client must immediately report the claim by telephone to Boat-Club. A claim report will be drawn up in due form as soon as possible.
The Checklist does not release the Client from notifying Boat-Club of any defects that are not listed on the Checklist.
If the Client has not notified Boat-Club immediately of the existence of a defect, the Client shall bear the costs of repairing any defect that may be detected after use, either by Boat-Club or by the next Client.
The Client is made aware that the propeller is not insured and that any damage caused to it must be entirely borne by the Client.
B. Obligations of the Client
