Lifevests 
· Boat Rentals include two life jackets per H16.  One trapeze harness is included if available. Other boats include 1 vest only. Wearing a lifevest is Mandatory on rental boats. 

Important 
· It is the prerogative of the TLYC to decide not to rent to anyone particularly if skill level is questionable, and/or if wind is strong. You may be required to take an exam and /or leave a rental deposit.  You are responsible for anything that breaks. You are responsible to check the boat before it goes out. If you don't think the boat can handle the conditions, don't rent it. 

Booklets on sailing 
· We do have a very inexpensive  booklet on sailing Hobies. If you are not an experienced catamaran sailor, buy it. And read it BEFORE you go out. Make sure you can right a capsized boat unless you want to be rescued. It takes 265 lbs in the right place, using the right technique to right a 16.  Technique is the key ingredient. 

Rescues 
· Generally,  if  a boat  has capsized or appears to be in need of assistance for 15 minutes or so,  we will send a rescue boat out.  TLYC does not guarantee that a rescue boat will be available.  So don’t count on it!  You will only be charged for the rescue if you accept the assistance, so sometimes it takes a while for the boat to go out. 
· IF you go out, remember you are on your own. You accept responsibility for everything. Being dependent on yourself alone, and making the proper preparations before you go out are an important part of what sailing is all about. 
· Do not take rental boats further than where you can see the boats on shore clearly unless you are very sure of yourself.  Under no circumstance should you go further than the islands. If you get into trouble we can't rescue you because we can't see you. If you can't clearly discern individual boat hulls on the beach, you are too far out for a rescue. We can't rescue you if we can't see you. 

Damage policy 
· The general policy on rental damage is:  You break a part, you pay for a new one. 
We have a catalog of parts complete with pricing for your perusal.  Inspect the boat before you go out. If the boat looks like it can only handle light winds, and it’s a windy day, don’t take it out. We reserve the right to refuse "oh it just broke" as an excuse.  This is particularly true on windy days. 
 
 
Other Rental Policies and charges 

  •  Boat rental ends at 5:30 PM.  If you aren’t back by sunset, or you are very far out at 5:30,  the boys may decide to go and get you, and you will be charged a rescue fee.
  •  “Hourly rental” minutes are not cumulative. ie you cannot rent something for 20 minutes, return it for 30 minutes, use it for 20 minutes, return it for 30 minutes, and rent it again for 20 minutes, and then say 20+20+20= 1 hr.
  •  Rental starts when you get on the boat. It does not start when you say you want to rent.  If you request that a boat be set up for your use, and then you don’t use it, you will only be charged 20% of the daily rate.   However, If someone else wants to use the boat,  you will be informed so you can choose for your rental to start, or be able to give up your rental at no charge.

  • Do not slam the boat into the beach. You risk a P500 fine. Stop the boat in the water by turning it upwind, and walk it into the beach.
