CHAPTER III

  4. Crew - If the tenant intends to hire a crew to carry out on-board services, the related costs and charges are entirely at his expense. This service, in fact, is not included in the object of the rental and is not included in the relative fee.

CHAPTER IV
Of fulfillment

  1. Delivery of the vessel - The vessel will be delivered to the lessee at the place and time established in the contract. If for any reason the lessor is unable to deliver the contracted unit, he has the right, with prior notice, including by telephone, to deliver another with similar characteristics within 4 hours with the obligation to reimburse the user for the relative hourly rate not enjoyed. If the delay lasts more than 4 hours, the lessee may request termination of the contract. In this case, the lessor will be required to return the amount paid by the lessee and to pay a penalty equal to the price agreed for one hour of rental. This is to compensate for any damage suffered or being suffered as a consequence of the aforementioned delay, expressly excluding the compensability of further damage.
  2. Return of the vessel – The lessee undertakes to return the vessel at the time and place agreed in the contract. If the vessel is not returned within the agreed time, a penalty equal to double the agreed price for one hour of rental will be applied for each hour of delay, without prejudice to any greater damage suffered by the lessor.
  3. Failure to use – The lessor is not responsible for failure to use the vessel in the event of: adverse weather conditions; contrary provisions of the maritime authorities; personal impediments of the user or his guests; in any event of fortuitous event or force majeure. In such cases, the rental contract will still start from the time of delivery, as indicated in this contract, and the lessor will maintain his right to the payment of the rental fee.
  4. Inventory list – Upon boarding, an inventory list of all the things on board will be given to the lessee. This list must be signed for receipt by the user, who will thus confirm that he has received the unit with all the regulatory accessories and anything else indicated. Protests after delivery will not be accepted.
  5. Damage, breakdowns, accidents, repairs - In the event of a breakdown or accident, the lessee is obliged to return immediately to the place of boarding. The lessee may continue navigation only if, at the sole discretion of the lessor, this will not lead to an increase in damage or danger to people or the unit. In cases where harm to the safety of the vessel and/or persons on board can reasonably be expected, the tenant may have all urgent repairs carried out after having notified the lessor and received his authorization, subject to reimbursement by the lessor of all expenses incurred by the tenant, which he will be able to document. The tenant must in any case return to the place of embarkation as soon as possible. If the time for repairs exceeds 2 hours, the tenant will have the right to request termination of the contract, with retroactive effect from the moment the breakdown occurred, obtaining the refund of the hourly fee for the rental period not enjoyed. Alternatively, given the organizational needs of the lessor, the tenant may extend the rental period beyond the expected term, recovering the hours of breakdown. The lessor, in any case, will be required to reimburse the hourly fee for the rental period not enjoyed, without the tenant being able to claim any right to further damages. In the event that repairs are necessary due to faults caused by the tenant, the tenant must carry them out before returning the property or in any case must compensate the landlord for the time necessary to carry them out which exceeds the duration of the rental contract, without prejudice to the landlord's right to compensation for any further damages. The tenant declares to waive, as in effect he waives, any and all compensation for any moral and/or patrimonial damages resulting from the failure to use the rented vessel for any reason, such waiver having been taken into account in determining the rental price.
