75 days before your departure date, we will forward to you your confirmation/contract which will include a summary of charter charges, extra charges for any additional services you may have requested (Example: Early Board or Damage Waiver), including applicable taxes, as well as the date your final payment is due. 

*** No reservations to people under 25 years of age.
*** No pets allowed.

Charter Payment: The reservation deposit is applied to the cost of the charter. The balance of the charter fee is due and payable forty five (45) days prior to departure and is also non-refundable.

Charter fees: Charter Fees are determined as follows: a. applicable season tariff, plus b. early board fees (when applicable), plus c. $35 per day damage waiver surcharge (see below), plus d. applicable taxes

Damage Waiver: Rideau Lakes Houseboats carries insurance covering the charter boat. Should physical damages occur you will be responsible for paying up to the first $2,500 (insurance deductible) of any loss. This liability can be reduced to the first $500 of any loss for a surcharge of $35 per day. Rideau Lakes Houseboats strongly recommends purchase of the physical damage liability buy-down.
 

You may elect to eliminate the damage waiver surcharge by placing $2,500 (in the form of Visa or MasterCard) on account at the marina. Any damages will be charged against this account and the balance refunded upon return of the boat.

Security Deposit: An $800 security deposit is required prior to boarding and will be applied to the following outstanding charges: damage to the propeller or outdrive; lost, broken or damaged inventory items; late returns; excessively unclean boats; or any damage resulting from negligent or irresponsible operation of, or activity on, the houseboat.
