Any use of other documents 2 than those specified, results in the liability of the skipper in the case of damage. The electronic map is a navigation AID and was de- veloped to simplify the use of official maps. It is no repla- 3 cement for official sea maps and only the official sea for a safe maps and messages contain the necessary information for safe navigation. The captain is responsible for correct sailing holiday use. We advise our customers to fill up the yacht already on the day before last and to also fill up the space can with 4 diesel. Before the yacht is handed over, the tank is filled with the reserve can. This saves the customer a long wait at the petrol stations and allows a smooth and timely check-out. The water tanks and the reserve can of the outboard motor are not filled. 5 Give stowaways (rats) no chance! Please put rests of meal and the gangway away. 6 Think of the next person! Regrettably it happens that yachts are left in very dirty and disorderly condition. This 7 means that the final cleaning takes longer as it should. This delays the check in of the next crew considerably. We therefore ask you kindly to ensure the boats are cle- an and tidy at hand over. Please dispose of your rubbish in the designated containers in the marina. These mea- sures will facilitate a swift and punctual check in for the following crew. Thank you for your cooperation.
