I agree that neither King's or the Inn on the Russian River shall be held liable for any damages to or loss of property, bodily injury, accident or loss of life while I am using craft or equipment that I have rented from King’s Sport & Tackle. I will inspect the craft/equipment issued to me and will only accept that in good condition. I am comfortable in the water and an adequate swimmer.I will wear foot protection to protect my feet from broken glass and/or other sharp objects that may be on the shore. I will wear my life vest, firmly fastened, when using the rental craft. I am taking a risk when paddling on the water and will operate in as safe a manner as possible.I realize that I may capsize my craft. If this happens, I will keep upstream of my craft. I will keep my feet up to avoid getting my foot stuck between large rocks and prevent being pinned between a rock and the craft. There are hazards in the water that pose risk to the paddler. If I see such danger, I will paddle close to the shallow shore and bypass it in the safest manner, which may be getting out on shore and walking my craft around. I hereby agree that I will not make a claim against King's Sport & Tackle or Inn on the Russian River or sue for bodily injury, emotional trauma, death and/or property damage resulting from negligence or other acts, however caused, as a result of renting the equipment. Upon payment of the rental, this agreement shall be deemed to have been entered into at Monte Rio, California and shall be construed according to the laws of the State of California. In the unlikely event a legal dispute should arise, I agree the dispute shall exclusively be brought before the appropriate court in Sonoma County, California. I will return the craft / equipment clean and in the condition in which it was rented to me, or pay for replacement or repair. I will not paddle the rental craft on class 2+ (Int. River Classification) waters or above. I will return the rented equipment before dark. I will not be on the river in the dark. IT IS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO RETURN THE KAYAK TO THE DOCK. I WILL NOT PADDLE BELOW THE MONTE RIO BRIDGE AS IT MAY BE TOO DIFFICULT TO PADDLE BACK UPSTREAM TO THE DOCK. I WILL NOTIFY KING'S ONCE I AM DONE WITH THE KAYAK AND HAVE RETURNED ALL EQUIPMENT. LOCK CODE IS 2156. |
