Check-in and return protocol, step by step
The checklist guides you through marina check-in and end-of-charter return. Photograph and log every issue — you have a written and photo record when they charge your deposit or extras with no proof.

The same process when you return the boat — compare condition to check-in. You and the charter company both have a record, not just them.
Wenn Schaden, Verbrauchsmaterial oder Zusatzkosten berechnet werden, haben Sie fotografische und schriftliche Nachweise.
