On this page

1. Making a Booking

When you book a charter through the Platform, you enter into an agreement directly with the operator, not with BoatSnaps. BoatSnaps facilitates the booking but is not a party to the charter agreement.

2. Confirmation

Bookings are subject to operator confirmation. Operators must confirm or decline booking requests promptly. A booking request does not guarantee availability until confirmed.

3. Payment

Payment for charters is made between you and the operator, and may be processed by third-party payment providers. BoatSnaps may charge marketplace service fees. See our Payments Policy.

4. Cancellation

Cancellation and refund terms are set by the operator and our Refund & Cancellation Policy. Weather cancellations are at the operator's discretion. BoatSnaps is not responsible for operator cancellations.

5. Changes

Changes to a confirmed booking must be agreed between you and the operator. BoatSnaps does not guarantee that changes can be accommodated.

6. Passenger Conduct

Passengers must follow the captain's instructions and all safety rules. Operators may refuse service or terminate a charter for passengers who are disorderly, intoxicated, or pose a safety risk.

7. Assumption of Risk

By booking a charter, you assume all risks associated with boating and water activities. See our Safety Disclaimer.

8. Disputes

Disputes regarding a charter are between you and the operator. BoatSnaps may assist with dispute resolution but is not liable for the outcome.

9. Governing Law

These Booking Terms are governed by Florida law. Venue shall be Miami-Dade County, Florida.
