In any case, the tenant is obliged to the landlord to settle any claims. e) If the renter is not the end user, the rights and obligations mentioned in the text also apply to the end user. The use of the rented property is limited to use within Croatian waters. For leaving this a written consent of the landlord is re�quired. 2 Contractual partners The rental agreement is concluded between the landlord and the tenant, if necessary through an agency. If an agency is involved, it acts as an intermediary. 3 Prices and terms of payment a) The rental price is calculated from the official price list of the lessor, this includes, among other things, the use of the rented boat, equipment and inventory. b) After the booking has been confirmed in writing, the following terms of payment apply (unless otherwise agreed in the contract). a. 50%- of the rental price within 8 days after written booking confirmation b. 50% of the rental price no later than 4 weeks before the start of the charter c. If the deposit is not paid in the specified time window, this entitles the landlord to cancel the booking. In this case, 10 of these terms and conditions shall apply. c) The following costs are not included in the rental price: mooring fees, tourist tax, fuel, gas, water and all other costs incurred for the proper use of the boat within the charter period. d) The tourist tax is to be paid after confirmation of the crew list (number of crew members) in cash at the base. e) It is recommended that the tenant take out travel cancellation insurance. 4 Deposit a) When taking over the boat (checklist at check-in, see also 11), the lessee must pay a deposit as security in the event of damage. The amount of the deposit is specified in the contract. The deposit will be returned to the lessee if the boat is handed over to the lessor in the same condition as it was taken over, swept clean and fully fueled both fuel and water. This is recorded on the basis of a handover protocol (checklist at check-out, see also 12) and signed by both sides. b) The tenant is advised to insure the deposit. This can be done through the landlord. The tenant can also have this insured with an insurance company of his choice. c) A deposit is also due if a skipper has been booked through the landlord. 5 Insurance a) The lessor undertakes to take out liability insurance for the rented boat at his own expense. b) The insurance is not liable for persons on the boat (occupants) and does not cover the loss of or damage to personal belongings of the occupants. Here, the landlord recommends the tenant to take out an appropriately designed insurance of his choice in advance. c) The landlord is not liable for damages to third persons (property or persons) caused by non-compliance with regulations and gross negligence of the tenant. Exceptions are damages covered by the above-mentioned liability insur-ance. The lessor assumes no liability for items left behind or lost on the boat. 6 Liability of the landlord a) The Lessor shall only be liable to the Lessee and his crew for damages resulting from intent and gross negligence on the part of the Lessor, as well as for damages resulting from injury to life, limb or health based on a negligent breach of duty by the Lessor or an intentional or negligent breach of duty by a legal representative or vicarious agent of the Lessor. b) The lessor is not liable for such damages caused by inaccuracies, changes or errors in the nautical aid material pro-vided, such as nautical charts, manuals, compass, direction finder, etc. c) Claims of the lessee as a result of non-usability of the yacht due to damage or total failure caused by the lessee or a third party during the charter period are excluded. The use of chartplotters is only an aid, autopilots do not replace a skip-per. In principle, navigation should be carried out using the available, up-to-date nautical charts. 7 Liability of the tenant a) For acts and omissions of the tenant, for which the landlord is held liable by third parties, the tenant indemnifies the landlord from all private and criminal consequences, including all costs of legal prosecution at home and abroad. The renter takes over the yacht at his own risk. b) If the lessee leaves the yacht at a place other than the agreed place, for whatever reason, the lessee shall bear all costs for the return of the yacht to water or land. If the return of the yacht exceeds the charter period, the yacht shall only be deemed to have been returned by the customer upon arrival at the agreed port of return. c) Delayed ship return and non-usability of the yacht caused by the lessee lead to claims for damages on the part of the lessor. d) It is pointed out that the conclusion of a comprehensive insurance by the landlord does not lead to any release of liability of the lessee for those damages that are not covered by the insurance or for which the insurance has expressly re-served a recourse of the tenant. This applies in particular to damages resulting from gross negligence, intent or non-ob-servance of the contractual conditions as well as to any consequential damages. e) The deductible per claim is to be borne by the tenant. In case of defect-free return of the yacht and equipment, the deposit will be refunded immediately. Damages and losses will be deducted from the deposit. Any damage not covered by the deposit or insurance must be compensated to the landlord immediately. It is recommended to take out deposit insurance. f) The conclusion of an extended skipperu0027s liability insurance (which regulates crew liability among each other and com-pensation for damage to the chartered yacht in case of proven gross negli�gence) and consequential damage insurance is recommended. 8 Obligations of the tenant 1. to respect the principles of good seamanship. 2. to master seamanship and to have sufficient experience in the management of a yacht or to provide a responsible skipper with these qualities.

For a charter period of two or more weeks, the deadline increases by 24 hours per additional week. 2. Further claims for compensation of the tenant, except for intent and gross negligence of the landlord, are excluded. If the lessee does not withdraw from the contract, he reserves the right to a refund of the pro rata charter price for the time by which the ship was handed over later. 3. Damage to the yacht and equipment that does not impair the seaworthiness of the yacht and allows the use of the yacht to continue to be reasonable does not entitle to withdrawal. A reduction is also excluded in this case. a. in case of cancellation of the boat up to 180 days before the start of the charter, 40% of the charter price will not be refunded b. in case of cancellation of the boat 180 - 90 days before the start of the charter, 70% of the charter price will not be refunded c. in case of cancellation of the boat 90 days before the start of the charter, the full charter price minus the transit log fee is due 4.

Later complaints with regard to the condition of the boat and equipment are no longer possible afterwards. 6.

If this knowledge does not exist or is not available, the landlord can, at the expense of the tenant, order a skipper. 7. If the tenant refuses to do so, he will be prohibited from expiring, the lease will be terminated with immediate effect and the rent paid will be withheld. Any claims for compensation or demands are excluded. 8. If, for unforeseeable reasons, the lessor cannot provide the contractually rented boat as agreed, the lessee will be provided with a similar or comparable one (equipment and year of construction may differ), this will not be regarded as a retreat by the lessor. The tenant cannot claim any compensation in the above case. 9. If parts of the equipment have been damaged or lost during the previous charter, without the appropriate replacement could be obtained before the start of the new charter, the lessee may not withdraw from the contract or claim a reduction against the lessor for this reason, unless the boat has been impaired in its seaworthiness. The same applies to mal-functions or the inaccurate display of measuring instruments when navigation is given with the help of classical naviga�tion methods. 12 Boat return (check-out) 1. The boat must be handed over at the end of the agreed charter period by 08:00 am, unless otherwise agreed in the contract (checkout). 2. Upon return, the boat is checked using the checklist. 3.

The lessee undertakes to return the boat on the agreed date. The boat must be at the base the evening before check-out. The trip must be planned in such a way that even in bad weather conditions, the boat can return to its home port. In case of late return, the tenant must immediately notify the base manager and wait for further instructions. All costs incurred (repatriation costs, travel costs for the subsequent tenant, etc...) shall be borne by the tenant. 5. The landlord can demand twice the daily price for each day of delay, per day. For each hour in which the tenant is in arrears, the tenant pays 20% of the daily price.

The lessee undertakes to return the boat with empty holding tanks, these are to be emptied at least 2 NM off the coast, otherwise the lessor empties the holding tanks and charges the costs incurred to the lessee. 7.

In addition, the landlord and the respective base manager must be informed immediately. The same applies to inability to manoeuvre and theft. The costs arising from the violation or non-observance of the regulations shall be borne in full by the tenant. A ground contact must be reported immediately to the base manager so that it can be checked whether the keel and floor structure are in perfect condition. The deposit will be retained for repair costs, damage, loss of equipment, loss of propellers, crane costs, self-inflicted engine or sail damage. The renter is liable for damages caused by incorrect operation/use of the boat and the equipment. In the case of costs that cannot be determined immediately or in the event of damage (in order not to cause a charter failure for the next tenant) and which can only be repaired later, an estimated amount will be retained by the lessor. An exact invoice will be made within a reasonable period of time. In the event of damage to the boat caused by gross negligence on the part of the skipper, the skipper shall be liable for the damage and consequential damages, in particular also for charter failures. If damage is caused by the renter or skipper and a continuation of the trip is not possible, it is possible to rent another boat, according to the regular price list and deposit of a deposit. In the event of damage or defect that was not caused by the lessee and prevents a further continuation of the trip, the lessor will repair it as soon as possible, provided that the lessee fully cooperates. If the landlord does not succeed in repairing the damage within the specified period, the landlord must look for an appropriate replacement. If an appropriate replacement is provided, any claim forfurther claims for damages shall lapse. 14 Complaints Any complaints and recourse claims arising from the yacht charter must be communicated in writing to the lessor no later than 14 days after the end of the charter. The complaints and recourse claims can only be processed and considered if the tenant has the complaints in question determined in writing at check-out by the local representative of the landlord.
