THIS JET-SKI RENTAL AGREEMENT CONSTITUTES A CONTRACT
BETWEEN RENTER(S) AND MASS WAKE / NORTHSHORE JETSKI RENTAL
1. TAX AND FUEL: All rental units will come with a full tank of gas. The unit needs to be returned to a full tank of gas after use. A 10% gas fee is applied to every rental. Unleaded 93 octane gas is mandatory. A 6.25% Massachusetts sales tax is included for all rentals.
2. INSPECTION OF EQUIPMENT- Owner(s) certify that the jet-ski(s) are in good mechanical and physical condition. Renter(s) will inspect said Equipment and leases the same without any representations by Owners(s). If equipment has damage or problems Renters(s) must report damage prior to rental. Renters(s) will be held responsible for any damage to the ski that is not reported at the time of drop off.
3. DAMAGES TO EQUIPMENT - The Damage Deposit: A damage deposit of $500.00 will be collected for each watercraft rented. The deposit will be applied toward the cost of the repairs of all damage suffered to the watercraft. If the cost of damages exceeds the damage deposit, the User agrees he/she is fully responsible for the remainder of the costs incurred to repair or replace the watercraft to the same condition as the time the rental agreement was started. Furthermore, the User understands and agrees that he/she who is known to Northshore Jetski Rental as the User, is the only person allowed to use the watercraft for the entire rental period. The User also understands that he/she is responsible for the retrieval and/or replacement of the watercraft, life jacket, or any safety items, if these items are in any way lost, stolen or misplaced during the rental period. Should any damages exceed the $500.00 damage deposit, MASS WAKE / NORTHSHORE JETSKI RENTAL will provide an itemized repair bill, including lost rental time (rental time begins with the date of the itemized repair bill, and stops when the watercraft is once again available for rental). The itemized repair bill, including lost rental time, must be paid in full upon User’s presentation of the bill. The security deposit shall not bear interest. The User shall be responsible for damages at and beyond the $500.00 damage deposit.
PLEASE BE AWARE: Major problems that can arise are few but costly. For example, damage to the impeller can cost several hundred dollars for debris sucked into the jet ski while damage to the engine due to overheating because of debris being sucked in can cost several thousand dollars.
4. THEFT OR LOSS: In case of theft or loss, Renter(s) is responsible for the replacement value of the Equipment. In case of abuse or damage, Renter(s) will be charged for the repair or replacement of the Equipment.
5. INSURANCE: NORTHSHORE JETSKI RENTAL offers NO insurance coverage for equipment damage incurred during your rental period. Please check your homeowner, auto, or credit card policy to see if there is an endorsement available to you.

Renter(s) will be responsible for all such operations. Renter(s) will not operate the Equipment, or permit anyone to operate the Equipment, while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Renter(s) will be responsible for the operation of the equipment within all laws.

Owner(s) will make every reasonable effort to repair or replace defective units as quickly and efficiently as possible. Repair due to normal wear and tear on the Equipment will be made by the Owner(s). Should a repair person make a call to repair or replace a unit that is found to be in working order and the problem was due to Renter(s) oversight or neglect or misuse, Renter(s) agrees that the repair call costs may be deducted from the Renter(s) security deposit.
8. LOSS OF RENTER(S) PROPERTY: It is expressly agreed that Owner(s) shall not be liable for loss of or damage to any property left of stored by Renter(s) or any other person in or upon said equipment after return thereof to Owner(s).
