As a condition of renting watercraft, accessories, equipment, and services (“Equipment”) and engaging in water activities (“Activities”), Renter must provide correct, current information and valid official ID. All operators must be at least 18 years old, listed on this Agreement, and authorized by LPR. No one may operate or use LPR Equipment or engage in Activities without reviewing, initialing each page, signing, and dating this Agreement (including the waiver and release).

OPERATOR REQUIREMENTS

Operator requirements & safe operation

Every operator certifies they are at least 18 years of age, are listed on and authorized by this Agreement, and are experienced in — or have received and will comply with LPR's instructions for — the safe use of the Equipment. Operators will run the Equipment reasonably and prudently with due regard for other watercraft, wakes, weather, passengers, swimmers, docks, and shorelines; will not operate while impaired by alcohol, drugs, fatigue, or illness; and will follow all posted restrictions, buoys, LPR instructions, and all state, federal, and local boating laws. Utah law and LPR policy require life preservers to be worn at all times. Operation is restricted to daylight hours.

Booking note: while this agreement permits listed operators 18 and older, LPR's insurance requires the primary renter to be at least 23 with a valid driver's license — this is enforced when you book.

Limitations on use include, without limitation: stay at least 150 ft from other watercraft; do not beach the Equipment; report all accidents or damage to LPR immediately; no weapons or drugs aboard; only authorized operators may operate; no pets without prior written permission; no towing of persons or devices without prior written approval; never exceed the maximum passenger count; do not operate in less than 5 feet of water; do not leave the Equipment unattended; obey all no-wake zones; and board only from the stern with the motor off. Violations may, at LPR's sole discretion, forfeit the rental and/or deposit without refund.

EQUIPMENT USE & LIMITS

Equipment, condition & running expenses

Renter accepts full delivery of the Equipment and is responsible for its operation and all charges incidental to its use during the rental period. By signing, Renter certifies the Equipment was examined to their satisfaction and delivered in good, operable, clean condition, properly outfitted, and without material defect. Renter remains solely responsible for the operation, control, condition, and possession of the Equipment and all related expenses, including fuel, oil, and any deductibles. The Equipment may not be assigned, transferred, or sublet without LPR's prior written consent. Renter agrees that any photos or film of Renter and participants becomes LPR property and may be used for promotional purposes without compensation. LPR reserves the right to refuse service to anyone at any time.

INSURANCE & SECURITY DEPOSIT

Damage insurance & security deposit

Damage insurance is mandatory on all motorized rentals — no exceptions. It is nonrefundable, included in your rental charges, and limits Renter's liability for damage to the rented Equipment. Each policy carries $3,000 of damage coverage; damage beyond $3,000 may be the renter's responsibility. LPR charges for damage at the time of the incident, and it is the renter's responsibility to submit a claim for reimbursement.

To secure this, LPR may place a $3,000 holdon the renter's credit card while on the rental Equipment. The hold is released once the Equipment is confirmed undamaged. LPR may require up to 72 hours to accurately assess damage; if the cost is not immediately ascertainable, LPR may retain the deposit until the damage can be reasonably determined. Renter remains responsible for any damage, loss, or obligation that exceeds the deposit.

DAMAGE, LOSS & LATE FEES

Damage, loss & late return

Renter is responsible for returning the Equipment in as good and clean a condition as when delivered, and for the cost of any damaged or missing items. Representative charges include: lost or abandoned Equipment billed at $179/hour for recovery; repairs performed by LPR at $199/hour plus materials and lost revenue; third-party repairs at the third party's rates plus materials and lost revenue; 100% retail replacement value for lost or stolen Equipment; and a cleaning fee of up to $50 per item if returned dirty. Equipment not returned within 24 hours is deemed lost at Renter's expense.

A late charge of 25% of the rental rate for each half hour (or any portion thereof) applies to Equipment returned after the agreed time, unless a later return was approved by LPR in advance. The entire deposit is forfeited if a motorized boat is upset or overturned, in addition to any other charges.

CANCELLATION & REFUNDS

Cancellation, no-shows & refunds

No-shows, and reservations not cancelled at least 7 days prior to the original rental time, are charged the full amount of the rental. LPR does not extend rental time, and gives no refunds, for weather, force majeure, water conditions, late start times, or downtime due to customer error, and no refunds for rentals returned early. LPR may terminate an activity for forces of nature, medical necessity, or other problems, or refuse participation by anyone it judges incapable of safely participating.

LIABILITY WAIVER & RELEASE

Waiver, assumption of risk & release

Water activities involve known, anticipated, and unanticipated risks that can result in physical or emotional injury, illness, or death — including drowning, head, neck, and spinal injuries, and damage to property — and these risks cannot be eliminated. As lawful consideration for participating, Renter, on behalf of themselves and all releasing parties (heirs, family, successors, assigns), expressly assumes all such risks, whether arising from the acts or omissions of Renter, other participants, third parties, or the negligence of LPR.

To the fullest extent permitted by Utah law, Renter voluntarily releases, forever discharges, waives, and covenants not to sue LPR for any and all claims, costs, liabilities, losses, damages, or causes of action connected with participation in the Activities or use of the Equipment, property, or facilities — including claims arising from or alleging the acts, omissions, or negligence of LPR. Renter acknowledges that, by signing, they may be found to have waived the right to sue LPR, including for negligence.

INDEMNITY & ENFORCEMENT

Indemnity & enforcement

To the fullest extent permitted by Utah law, Renter agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold LPR harmless from any and all claims, costs, and expenses (including attorney's fees) arising out of Renter's breach of this Agreement, use or misuse of the Equipment, participation in the Activities, the acts of any passenger or unauthorized operator, any violation of law or safety requirement, or any alcohol or drug use. This Agreement is governed by Utah law; any claim must be brought only in the Fourth Judicial District, Wasatch County, Utah, and Renter waives the right to a jury trial. If any portion is found unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect. This document is the entire agreement and cannot be modified by outside statements.

Disclaimers: except as expressly stated, and to the fullest extent permitted by law, LPR disclaims all express or implied warranties, and is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages. LPR's liability shall not exceed twice the total amount paid by Renter for rental of Equipment in the twelve months preceding the claim. LPR is not responsible for loss, theft, or damage to personal property.

MINORS

Parents & guardians of minors

A parent or legal guardian signing on behalf of a participant under 18 represents they have authority to permit the minor's participation, acknowledges the risks, consents to and agrees to supervise the minor's participation, releases their own claims to the same extent as above, and agrees to indemnify LPR for claims arising from the minor's participation — except to the extent caused by LPR's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
