WAIVER AND RELEASE – PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

  1. I understand that my participation and/or involvement in charter activities such as fishing, snorkelling, swimming, and boating (hereafter “the Activity”) carries with it the potential for risks including risks to personal safety.

I voluntarily assume full responsibility for all risks associated with the Activity in accordance with the above.
  3. This Release shall be construed so that it excludes or limits liability to the maximum extent permissible under (but compliant with) the common law and the Unfair Contract Terms Ordinance CAP 17.11 for all claims, whether in tort, contract or otherwise.
