The master of a yacht shall be responsible to ensure that the yacht is safely moored in a proper manner at all times when berthed or moored at a yachting centre.

In the absence of the master of a yacht, the Authority shall have the right to adjust or alter its position or to remove it to any other berth or mooring, at the risk and expense of the owner of the yacht.

No yachts shall be moved from one berth to another within a yachting centre without the prior authorisation of the Authority. The owner and the master of a yacht shall at all times be responsible for the safety of the yacht and they shall be liable in solidium for any damages caused by the yacht to a yachting centre or its facilities. No person shall discharge or allow any oil, garbage or other refuse to escape into the waters of a yachting centre. No person shall deposit on the quay any craft and stores, supplies or other material, or in any way obstruct the quay or its approaches. No person shall cause or permit any craft to proceed at a speed in excess of five knots within a yachting centre. Owners and masters of yachts, in respect of which any fees, charges or rates are due, shall notify the Authority of their intention to leave the yachting centre not later than 24 hours before the expected time of departure.

The Authority shall not be liable in respect of loss of, or damage to, any yacht, its furniture, stores, machinery or equipment occurring for any cause whatsoever while it is in a yachting centre. Yachts shall at all times be under the charge of a master or of any other person or persons duly authorised to assume full responsibility of the yacht.
