If 2 of you are booking a course there are three options:

We will match you with people of similar ability and will charge our normal daily rate of £100 per person. We will try and find other people until the day before your course but if we are unable to do so you will be charged £150 per person per day for exclusive use of the boat.
- Check our boat filler dates for a course and date to suit you. The rate for boatfillers is £100 per person per day.
or - You may book the boat for your exclusive use (see above for rate).
For one person bookings check our boat filler dates or see exclusive use rate.

Booking Information
- Before you book your course, we recommend that you discuss your requirements with us – by phone or email.
- When you are happy with the date and the course, please contact us to contact us to confirm your booking .
- Pay the deposit (£50 per person) to reserve your course OR pay the full cost of the course if it is less than 4 weeks away.
All payments can be made by cheque to "outrun sailing ltd" or by credit card.
Once you have booked we will issue an Invoice confirming the course details and the price. A Contract will then exist between us. Please check the details of your Invoice carefully. If you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact us.
If you have paid a deposit for a course you will be required to pay the balance 4 weeks prior to your course. This final payment date will be included in your Invoice. Failure to pay the final payment on time could result in cancellation of your course and loss of your deposit (we’ll send you a reminder in case you’ve just forgotten)
Insurance
We recommend that you take out suitable holiday insurance for your needs prior to your course. We cannot be held responsible for your costs if you fail to do so.
Cancellation
If you cancel your course more than 14 days before your course start date, the cancellation charge will be your deposit. Cancellation 14 days or less before your course will result in a cancellation charge of 100% of the cost of your course.
Although sailing is obviously a weather dependent activity it is uncommon for us to have to cancel courses because of too much or too little wind. If this is a possibility we will try and discuss it with you prior to your course (hence the importance of contact details on your booking form). If a course has to be cancelled because of adverse weather we will re-arrange the course at a convenient time for you.
