Ride Protection

TRADA RENTALS has an insurance contract that clients must sign and date before every boat ride.

Deposit

A security deposit is required for each personal watercraft being rented. The sum is of $1000 per personal watercraft, payable by credit card, debit card, or cash and will be returned at the end of the rental period, depending on the condition of the watercraft upon return.

Cancellation

The renter must cancel his/her reservation by phoning TRADA RENTALS 48hrs IN ADVANCE, or else the sum paid in non-reimbursable and non-transferable. In the event that the renter notifies us, that he will not be able to make it, the day of the reservation, the sum will be credited (for a duration of one month) in order to carry out another rental. The renter must then phone TRADA RENTALS to plan a reservation at a future date.

No matter the reason, if a rented watercraft is unavailable, TRADA RENTALS will provide another watercraft, and in the event that it is impossible, the deposit as well as the sum of the reservation will be returned to the client.
