Rowgue Vogalonga
Trip
Conditions and Release of Liability
We have done our best to
secure great lagoon worthy boats for this exciting event. In the unlikely event
that something should happen to the boats (for example in transport, they are
traveling 800km to be there) we would probably be unable to obtain replacement
boats, and have therefore added a clause to that effect to our usual release of
liability.
In addition, because we are booking
this trip so long in advance, we cannot predict the vagaries of the Euro and
the Dollar. We would hope not to have to, but should the Euro go above 1.5
Euros to the dollar in the Spring of 2013, we will need to charge a Euro pegged
supplement to cover our additional costs, which would be added to your final
payment.
We will be quite a group, and
are planning meals at a variety of local small restaurants. If you have special
food restrictions, you should be forewarned: grocery stores are small and limited
in Venice proper, and due to space and time the restaurants will not be able to
effectively accommodate those restrictions with special menus.
Please initial these
paragraphs and sign the waiver at the bottom, and send it back to:
