Additional Costs:
Diesel: The diesel used will be charged for on return from your holiday. The cost of diesel is set at slightly under supermarket prices prevailing at the time of your holiday. Your boat engine will use between 1.25 and 1.7 litres per cruising hour. In addition, your boat is equipped with diesel fired central heating which will increase diesel consumption when the central heating is in use. We estimate usage of approx. £12 - £15 per day.

Pets: On those boats where pets are allowed, the charge is £30 per pet (payable on arrival at the boat base). They are not allowed on seating or beds and may not be left unattended. Pets are not covered under the company's insurance policy and the Hirer shall be liable for the cost of any damage or extra cleaning required. A maximum of 2 pets per boat. Please ask when booking if you would prefer a pet free boat and we will do our best to allocate one to you, but this cannot be guaranteed.

Damage Waiver: For a compulsory, non-refundable additional payment of £50 (£50 for 2012), you will be covered in the event of any accidental damage/loss or accident to your boat or its inventory during your holiday. Exclusions include reported or witnessed speeding; malicious, negligent or intentional damage to the boat, its equipment, the waterway, other boats or structures; damage to rudder or skeg, due to sill damage in locks; return of the boat in unclean condition.

Booking: When booking more than 8 weeks in advance, a 25% deposit is payable, then the balance of hire becomes due 8 weeks before your arrival date. Please note that a 2% surcharge is made for all credit card transactions. No surcharge is payable when paying by debit card.

Cancellation Protection Scheme: This is an optional scheme which gives you the right under certain circumstances to cancel your holiday at any time before you start. In this event you are absolved of all liability under the conditions of hire for any balance of charges due, and if part or all of such charges have already been paid, they will be refunded.
