Sailing Hints & Tips - Part II
• In case you need tug help and before you accept it, agree on the price and ask for a receipt that clearly states that no further payment will be asked. CALL US IMMEDIATELY.
• Remember to call us aprox every four to five days giving us your position.
• Avoid dropping papers or napkins in the toilet bowl. It's better to use plastic bags for the waste papers. Toilet pumps are not able to dissolve such things.
• Remember to close the main switch at the top of gas bottle when you don't use the gas stove or when nobody is on board.
• The port Authorities may ask you to present them, the documents of the yacht. Don't forget to take them back and always keep them on board.
• Avoid making any permanent modification or repair to the yacht, but if such a modification seems to be necessary, first let us know.
• Any equipment failure must be reported to us immediately. Our technicians on most of the islands will solve your problem. At the end of the charter we will not undertake any responsibility if you fail to inform us.
• While refilling either water or fuel tanks, make sure not to mix fuel with water or water with fuel. In both cases the situation becomes unpleasant and difficult to be repaired.
• Keep always an eye on the hour counter of your motor and make sure that you have sufficient amount of fuel in your tank. The fuel gauge is not always reliable, so check the hours that you have used the motor.
• If you return to Alimos marina, remember not to drop your anchor but use one of the permanent mooring lines you will find hanging on the quay.
• According to the clause 4.i of your contract, two days prior to the termination of the charter the Yacht's port of call shall lie at a distance not greater than forty (40) NM from the point at which the Yacht is to be returned to the Owner. Please note that a delayed arrival will affect the next charterers holidays.
• You are kindly requested not to throw plastic bottles, cans or any other waste in the sea. Keep them on board and remove immediately at the first harbour.
• It is also requested not to raise any flag, other than the Greek, at the aft side of the yacht, as it is against Greek and International marine regulations.
CAUTION : If the yacht is equipped with DSC VHF, DO NOT PRESS DISTRESS SIGNAL BUTTON UNLESS IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY (FIRE - COLLISION - GROUNDING - SINKING).The penalty for the unnecessary use amounts to EURO 1,500-. and will be charged to your account.
