NJ Boating Safety Class Refund and Cancellation Policy
Boating Safety Class payments are refundable if the student cancels at least three days (72 hours) prior to their scheduled class start date. In the event that a refund is required, all refunded amounts of over $100.00 will be issued by check and will be provided through the U.S. mail.
Students that do not cancel at least three days prior to their class start date may transfer to any other scheduled class at any of our locations; there is no refund option if cancellation does not occur at least three days prior to the scheduled class start date.
Should any class, before or after commencing, need to be shut down for reasons beyond our control, there is no refund option. In this event, we will make every attempt to continue and/or relocate the class as soon as possible; however, the only remedies available to students will be to continue the class once it has reopened, continue the class at the newly established location, or reschedule to a future class date and location.
Captain Jack's Boating School LLC reserves the right to cancel any class. Students will be given as much notice as possible. If we do cancel a class, students have the option of transferring to another scheduled class date or receiving a full refund.
Additional Refund and Cancellation Policy Due to Covid-19 and CDC Requirements
Due to CDC requirements, we have been forced to limit our class sizes. For this reason, we must turn away prospective students once a scheduled course is deemed to be full. Be advised: Any student that fails to show up for their scheduled course without proper notice (as outlined above) will forfeit any and all payments/deposits that they have made.
