BOAT DIVING WAIVER

Statement of Understanding

  1. Warranty of Ability - I understand that each person who signs up for a dive trip with Sunshine Coast Diving Centre Pty Ltd (trading as Scuba World) warrants that he or she is physically and mentally capable of participating successfully in that activity.  I further understand and agree that Sunshine Coast Diving Centre Pty Ltd (trading as Scuba World) will give no refunds for seasickness, inability to equalize, cold, fatigued or for any other reason that prevents an individual from participating fully.
  2. I further understand that any underwater guide service provided by Sunshine Coast Diving Centre Pty Ltd (trading as Scuba World) is done solely to enhance my enjoyment and not because such guidance is required to compensate for lack of ability on my part. If I do not believe that I have maintained at least the same level of ability as a newly certified diver, I understand that I should take part in a refresher course before participating in any dive trip with Scuba World.
  3. Minors - I understand that a parent or guardian must sign all minors' forms.
  4. Possible changes - I understand that the scheduled dive destinations are subject to weather and conditions, and Scuba World reserves the right to cancel dive trips or change destinations at any time. I further understand that some dive trips may be cancelled at any time due to lack of sufficient participation.

I am aware of the dangers of breath holding while scuba diving, and will not hold the above listed businesses nor any individuals responsible (such as employees, instructors, certified assistants, boat operators, or diver training agencies) if I am injured doing so.

I understand that even though I follow all the appropriate dive practices, there is still some risk of me sustaining decompression sickness, embolism, or other baro-trauma, and I expressly assume the risk of such injuries.

Evidence of Skill and awareness:

I am aware that I will be diving with a buddy, and it will be our responsibility to plan a dive allowing for our limitations and the prevailing water conditions. I will not hold the above listed businesses and individuals responsible for my failure to safely plan my dive.

I confirm that I will adhere to any dive briefings provided by you, unless expressly agreed upon prior to any dive.

I will inspect all of my equipment prior to the activity and will notify the above listed businesses and /or individuals if any of my equipment is not working properly. I will not hold the above listed businesses nor individuals responsible for my failure to inspect my equipment prior to diving.
