Terms and conditions of use

Private racks are allocated by the Captain, and are made available on the following basis:

*  The rack fee has been paid in full and on time.
*  If a member has not paid the rack fee by the due date, boats are liable to be moved by the Captain without warning.
*  The rack is used on a regular basis (unless it is a storage rack).

Since there is a waiting list for racks, the club reserves the right, after giving prior notice, to move a boat to a storage rack if it is not being used regularly, and to reallocate the accessible rack to another member on the waiting list.

Boat owners should ensure that:

*  They have their own boat insurance.
*  They have a boat license from the Environment Agency.
*  The boat is named in accordance with the EA’s river rules.

Boats and sculls are marked so that it is obvious that the equipment is private. Private boats are stored in the boathouse at owners’ risk, and the club cannot accept any liability for loss or damage to private boats, howsoever caused.

Waiting List

Please do not purchase a sculling boat on the assumption that there will be space available in the boat house.
Approximately a third of the racking space in the boathouse is currently allocated to boats not owned by the club. There is no more rack space available for new private sculling boats. Consequently, a waiting list is in operation. If you would like to be added to the waiting list, please speak to Sean Kerns, who handles these matters on the Captain’s behalf. Please wait until you reach the top of the list before purchasing a boat.

Boat / Rack sharing

Boat / rack sharing is encouraged to maximise rack usage and to help as many people as possible to have access to a private sculling boat.  Any current boat owners interested in this option should advise Sean, and anyone wishing to take up a boatshare should likewise make their wishes known so that people can be matched up.  If arrangements are made privately, it would be appreciated if Sean could be advised so that he has a clear picture of the boat rack situation.

Second-hand Boat Purchase

If you buy a sculling boat from another member, the rack does not go with the boat.  Rack assignment is according to the waiting list.  Therefore, should an existing member decide to sell a boat, it would be appreciated if they could inform Sean so that those on the waiting list may be offered the option to purchase first.

Under no circumstances should sculling boats be moved, racks re-allocated or boats moved into the boathouse without speaking to Sean first.
