The Terms and Conditions constitute the entire agreement and understanding between us and you.

7. When a booking is made by you either online or otherwise, your booking will be acknowledged but will not be confirmed until the total number of passengers booked for that particular cruise reaches the minimum viable number (as deemed by us). If the total number of people booked on a particular cruise is fewer that the minimum viable number the cruise will not proceed. If anyone cancels their booking so that the total number of passengers falls below the minimum viable number, the cruise will be cancelled and you will be notified accordingly and clause 9 below will apply.
8. Full payment for the boat cruise or charter will become due at the time of the booking. A provisional booking will only be held for twenty-four hours after which you will be deemed to have cancelled your booking and clause 9 below will apply.

In any event, the payment for a breakfast Cruise will be the full price of the breakfast excluding any extras which may be ordered on the day. All bookings must include at least two courses for each passenger and will be charged in full whether the meal is taken or not. Private Charter Charges: If the number of guests for a private charter falls below the initially booked number, an additional charge will apply. For bookings of 12 guests, if fewer than 12 guests attend, a fee of £20 per absent guest will be charged. This fee is to cover costs associated with the reduction in the number of attendees, including the inability to sell food and drink to the absent guests. Any additional charges will be settled on the day of the cruise.

Unfortunately, we are unable to offer a refund for cancellations made within 14 days of the cruise date.In exceptional circumstances (to be determined by us in our sole discretion) where you request a change of cruise date, we may agree to change a date (once only), subject to availability and provided that the change is requested more than seven days before the booked trip. Requests for changes to a trip date requested within seven days of the booked trip will be classed as a cancellation. In the event of cancellation or a passenger's missing the sailing, for any reason, no refunds are available. Any request for a change must be made to us directly and an administration fee of £10.00 will apply.
12. Should you or any member of your party, for whatever reason, fail to arrive on time for your scheduled cruise no refund or compensation will be payable.
