FLORIDA ISLAND TOURS SAFETY & LIABILITY WAIVER
I understand that during my time and use of the Florida Island Tours Co. (dba Florida Island Tours), I may be exposed to a variety of hazards and risks, foreseen or unforeseen, which are inherent in being a boat passenger and participating in related water activities.
These inherent risks include, but are not limited to, the dangers of serious personal injury, death and property damage resulting from, but not limited to: (i) physical exertion and activities, (ii) contact with other boats, marine wildlife, rip currents, and other water hazards, (iii) slipping, tripping or falling, (iv) falling from heights or off the boat, (v) inappropriate, intoxicated and unsafe behavior of passengers, (vi) sudden illness, (vii) malfunctioning equipment, (viii) inclement weather, and (viii) other hazards associated with travel on a boat and recreational water activities.
I fully understand that Florida Island Tours or its staff has not tried to contradict or minimize my understanding of these risks. I know that injuries, damage, and death can occur by natural causes or activities of other people, users, staff, or third parties, either as a result of negligence or because of other reasons. I appreciate that I may have to use extra care to reduce the risks when exposed to these hazards. I understand that no medical facilities or expertise are readily available to assist with injuries or conditions.
In consideration of my acceptance as a passenger on Florida Island Tours, and the services and amenities provided, I CONFIRM MY UNDERSTANDING OF THE FOLLOWING:
RELEASE OF LIABILITY. I understand and agree to WAIVE AND DISCHARGE CLAIMS AGAINST, RELEASE FROM LIABILITY, INDEMNIFY, DEFEND, AND HOLD HARMLESS Florida Island Tours and its owners, vessel, employees, affiliates, agents, or assigns from and against ANY AND ALL LIABILITY on account of, or in any way resulting from, my death, personal injury or damages related to my time and use of Florida Island Tours, even if caused by NEGLIGENCE.

I understand and intend this release to be as broad and inclusive as permitted by law, and to be binding upon my heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns.
