Maine Island Kayak Co Waiver & Release
Cancellations & Refunds
If MIKCo cancels any day’s event due to too few participants or due to unsafe weather or sea conditions, or the status of any pandemic, we will offer a reasonable alternative, or a full refund. If you cancel with 7 days notice, we'll send you a full refund; if you give us less than 7 days notice, we cannot refund you unless we can fill your reserved spot. If MIKCo feels or agrees that the pandemic risk is too worrisome for safe delivery of our course or trip, MIKCo will provide a full refund.
Personal Responsibility
You expressly agree that you are able to participate in this rigorous event, that you understand the risks inherent in rougher water paddling in cold water, and that you will use your best independent judgment at all times in determining your ability to safely and successfully participate in event tasks.

You acknowledge having read the Fine Print and that you have medical insurance and/or are responsible for any health and medical costs you may incur from participation in this event.
