4- RENTER WILL COVER COST OF REPAIR, DEVALUATION OR REPLACEMENT FOR ANY DAMAGE or MISSING PARTS. Please let us know if your kayak needs work, gravel road shuttles loosen them up quickly, please check screws every few days.
5-BROKEN KAYAK POLICY : Swimming out your kayak can be bad for boats. There is a devaluation fee to cover when you crack one of our kayaks. We work on being as fair as possible with you. Each boat will have a tag price when leaving the shop and devaluation will be determined on the current market and size of crack. You can always choose to replace the kayak ( equal or similar) or pay for the damage. Reopening of repairs are expected and not a big concern, $20 for repairs on already existing patches may be required , need to monitor the patches if you take big hits.

A very large crack beyond repair; you can expect to buy the kayak or if you choose to replace the kayak maybe easier.

Try to rent ZET kayaks, as they are a lot more resilient than other brands, Daggers are really good too. Unless you are a light and clean line rider then you have nothing to worry about.

*Decide WISELY where you going with rented kayaks. Deeper water canyons are high quality at lower flows and chances are way less to brake a boat down there. Cracks, Pitons, Swims, transportation damage and theft can happen and you are responsible for your rental while you have it. The continuous and technical character of the rivers is better on regular flows but Ecuador has lots of rocks to go around specially at lower flows, is totally up to the renter to decide where they choosing to boat and the lines they take.

URCUSIQUI put IN and PAPALLACTA creek are FORBIDDEN on RENTED kayaks. Low flow will brake a kayak and is better to avoid boat abusive runs.

Upper Jondachi low flow and Papallacta brake a lot of boats, we suggest to avoid low flows and class V sections with rented kayaks. Unless you are confident on your skills or have read and understand your position renting a kayak.

DO NOT PUT IN ON THE URCUSIKI creek for the upper JONDACHI on a rented boat, ultimately you are responsible for your rental and if broken you’ll have to pay for it.
