PAU HANA MARINE, LLC operate under our complete Terms and Conditions listed below. Scheduling a charter with us is your agreement to these terms and conditions. Please read carefully. (This is not the Waiver of Liability and Hold Harmless Agreement, for which every member of the party will need to provide a signed one prior to leaving the marina.) The “Vessel” shall be defined as any motor yacht or vessel chartered from Pau Hana Marine, LLC. The “Owner” shall be defined as the legally registered owner of the vessel. The “Charter Guest”, including any guests or party members thereof, shall be defined as person(s) booking and/or paying for the charter.   Booking, Cancellations and Refunds: A minimum deposit of 50% of the cost of the charter is required to book and must be received at the time of booking. If the deposit is not received at the time of booking, the charter will not be scheduled. If the party does not appear on the scheduled date and time and does not cancel prior to the scheduled date and time by email or by phone at least 3 days/72 hours prior to the scheduled date, then your deposit will be forfeited.  The balance of the charter price over and above your deposit is due prior to departure from the marina. The party is limited to 6 persons, including children. Due to safety concerns, children under 12 are not permitted to be left alone on the boat without an adult member of the party present.  When you receive a booking confirmation, it is your reservation date/time as long as the Captain determines that the weather is appropriate. Lightening, hail, high winds and torrential rain are a few examples of severe weather that may result in the Captain terminating or altering the trip. If the charter is cancelled due to inclement weather, the charter may be rescheduled for the first available date acceptable to both the party and Pau Hana Marine, LLC, provided a reasonable amount of time has not been completed. A trip terminated by the Captain due to the bad weather once the charter has commenced will not be entitled to a refund if the party agreed to begin the charter knowing of the impending weather. A trip terminated due to member(s) of the party getting sick will not be entitled to a refund or credit. Pau Hana Marine, LLC reserves the right to make whatever changes to the trip that circumstances dictate, including substitutions of Captain, cancellations due to weather, mechanical failure, etc. It is the responsibility of the Charter Guest to notify all members of the party and arrange for the party to be present on the date, time and location of the charter. You are expected to be on time for your charter. Charter time begins at the specified time, not when the party arrives. Charter time ends promptly at the specified time, regardless of the party’s arrival time. Plan accordingly. If you do not show up at the place designated on the day of your reservation, you will forfeit your deposit. Misuse of the boat or equipment is prohibited and is grounds for canceling the charter without refund.   Captain’s Authority: The charter operates under the authority of the boat Captain.
