This AGREEMENT between Dive Centre Bondi and 'the RENTOR', is entered into for the rental of scuba and/or skin diving equipment.

This AGREEMENT is a release of the RENTOR's rights to sue for injuries or death resulting from the rental and/or use of the equipment. The RENTOR expressly assumes all risks of skin and/or scuba diving related in any way to the rental and/or use of this equipment.

The RENTOR hereby acknowledges receipt of the equipment designated in the attached receipt, and, if any of this equipment is to be used for scuba diving, that the RENTOR is a certified scuba diver or student in a scuba diving course/program under the supervision of a certified scuba instructor. The RENTOR acknowledges that the equipment is in good working condition and that he/she/they have examined the equipment to ensure it is free from defects, including checking both the quality and quantity of gas in any scuba tank(s) rented.

Each RENTOR is permitted to rent only one set of dive equipment and one scuba tank per rental period. Equipment is not to be shared, sub-rented, or used by any person other than the RENTOR listed on this agreement.

The RENTOR also understands that Dive Centre Bondi and its employees, owners, or agents (hereinafter 'RELEASED PARTIES') shall not be held liable or responsible in any way for any injury, death, or other damages to the RENTOR or his/her/their family, heirs, or assigns, which may occur as a result of the rental and/or use of the equipment, or as a result of product defect or the negligence of any party, including the RELEASED PARTIES, whether passive or active.

  • Notification: Promptly inform Dive Centre Bondi of any loss or damage.
  • Replacement Cost: Accept full responsibility for the cost of replacing lost, stolen, or damaged equipment, based on Dive Centre Bondi's current pricing.
