I understand that such risks simply cannot be eliminated without jeprodizing the essential qualities of the activity.

The risks include, among other things: slips and falls, accidental drowning, watercraft may capsize and cause entrapment; travel in remote areas; collision with objects or other watercraft; rapidly changing adverse weather and water conditions; watercraft is slippery when wet and accidents can occur while getting on or off; the negligence of participants, or other persons who may be present; exhaustion; exposure to the elements of the outdoors and natural surroundings which could cause cold water shock, hypothermia, hyperthermia (heat related illnesses), heat exhaustion, sunburn, dehydration; exposure to potentially dangerous wild animals, insect bites, and hazardous plant life; aggressive and/or poisonous marine life; passengers can be jolted, jarred, bounced, thrown about and otherwise shaken during rides; passengers can be thrown off the vehicles; strains, sprains, broken bones and musculoskeletal injuries including head, neck, and back injuries: cuts, abrasions and bruises; the negligence of participants or other persons who may be present: equipment failure or operator error, accidents or illness can occur in remote places without medical facilities; my own physical condition, and the physical exertion associated with this activity. Additionally, fatigue, chill and/or dizziness my diminish my/our reaction time and increase the risk of an accident. Traveling to and from the pier raises the possibility of any manner of transportation accidents.

                  Furthermore, CBR personnel have difficult jobs to perform. They seek safety, but they are not infallible. They mighty be unaware of a participants fitness or abilities. They might misjudge the weather or other environmental conditions. They may give incomplete warnings or instructions, and the equipment being used might malfunction.

1.      I expressly agree and promise to accept and assume all of the risks in this activity. My participation in this activity is purely voluntary, and I elect to participate in spite of the risks. Additionally, I agree to wear a U.S. Coast Guard approved personal flotation device (life jacket) and wetsuit bottom (or clothing that provides equivalent protection) while participating in this activity.

2.      I hereby voluntarily release and forever discharge, and agree to indemnify and hold harmless CBR from any and all claims, demands, or causes of action, which are in any way connected with my participation in this activity or my use of CBR’s equipment or facilities. Including any such claims which allege negligent acts or omission of CBR.

3.      Should CBR or anyone acting on their behalf, be required to incur attorneys fees and costs to enforce this agreement. I agree to indemnify and hold them harmless for all such fees and costs.

4.      I certify that I have adequate insurance to cover any injury or damage I may cause or suffer while participating, or else I agree to bear the costs of such injury or damage myself. I further certify that I am willing to assume the risk of any medical or physical conditions I may have.

5.      In the event that I file a lawsuit against CBR, I agree to do so solely in the state of North Carolina, and I further agree that the substantive law of that state shall apply in that action without regard to the conflict of law rules of that state. I agree that if any portion of this agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining document shall remain in full force and effect.

By signing this document, I acknowledge that if any anyone is hurt or property is damage during my participation in this activity, I may be found by a court of law to have waived my right to maintain a lawsuit against CBR on the basis of any claim from which I have released them herein. I also agree that this document is valid for subsequent visits and participation at CBR.
