We love our clients. We want to go sailing with them, not make them read *legalese*. Nonetheless, here's our

Refund Policy

If you book a trip, and instead of sending you a confirmation email we inform you that we cannot accept the booking, despite having taken payment: you can either (1) use your payment for another booking, or (2) receive a full refund, in which case we will *eat* the Paypal fees mentioned below.

Otherwise, all bookings are fully refundable, except, because of costs we incur, as follows. Thank you for your understanding.

Unless a booking is made with a check via snail mail, refunds would be subject to our online payment processor Paypal's terms. Unfortunately they no longer refund their fees, so except as noted above, any refunds of online bookings would not include those fees, which as of this writing are 30¢ + 2.9% in the U.S.

Cancellation of a confirmed booking less than 48 hours before the trip's start are subject to a 25% late cancellation fee. We usually email start time and location before this deadline, but if we haven't, a 10:30 AM deadline two days prior to launch will apply.

If covid rapid tests are administered before launch, which any person on the trip can request, and you either refuse to take the test or test positive, your ticket will be refunded, but the 25% late cancellation fee will apply (except if an instructor-guide tests positive and cannot be replaced), so please be covid safe!

We don't cancel trips for rain. If we decide the forecast is so bad that we should not attempt to complete a trip, we'll offer a choice of (1) rescheduling the trip or affected portion for no charge, and (2) a refund or prorated refund subject only to Paypal's fees, if applicable.

That's all!
