Are Jet Skis, diving and every advertised water toy guaranteed?

Short answer

Do not assume that a listed item will be available or usable throughout your route. Burgess warns that recreational equipment can change and that local restrictions or operator-licensing requirements may affect personal watercraft use. (burgessyachts.com)

  • Recommended contractual step:

For each activity that could change your yacht choice, ask:

QuestionRequired clarification
Is the equipment aboard?Exact item and current condition
Who may use it?Relevant qualifications and restrictions
Where may it operate?Route-specific permissions and limitations
Who provides instruction?Named capability or third-party arrangement
What does it cost?Included service versus additional expense
What happens if it is unavailable?Proposed alternative and contractual treatment

For diving, distinguish carrying equipment from arranging a properly supported dive activity.

Recommended contractual step: if one activity is central to the vacation, ask counsel and the broker how its agreed provision should be recorded. Do not expect a photograph of a toy to establish a remedy if it cannot be used.
