TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR BOAT HIRE WITH DRIVER

Boarding for the “
” will open 15 minutes early! Please arrive at the Vanasadam Marina early—ideally, allow 30 minutes to spare! The address is Kai 6, Sadama Turu building; we’ll be waiting for you on Pier 3!

Conch shoes and the sea don’t go together (they’re fine for taking pictures, but make sure you’re comfortable). Ships like shoes with light-coloured soles and slip-resistant footwear, and it’s always cooler at sea than on land. Dress for the weather, rather warmer.

The captain’s word on board is like the law, because we are responsible for your safety!

You can take food and drinks on board or order them, see the Kai Café website for more details. Red beverages and meals are not the ships’ favourites, so we’d appreciate it if you respect the custom and keep order.

Please note! If you eat on board, a €25 cleanup fee will be added to the charter price—unless, of course, you’re willing to spend another 15–30 minutes cleaning the boat yourself after the trip.

Our vessels are equipped with life-saving equipment and have passed the required Maritime Administration survey, and our captains hold a recreational boat captain’s certificate.

If you are sailing with children, please let us know the number of children in advance so that we can ensure lifejackets are available. Children must wear lifejackets on merelaine.ee ships!

In the event of a storm (winds above 15 m/s) we will refund 100% of the service fee.

If it’s raining and you don’t want to come to the sea, we’ll find another time together.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR RENTING A GUIDE BOAT

To rent without a driver, you need a recreational boat driver’s licence.

The small boat comes with all the necessary equipment to ensure you have a carefree and enjoyable time on the water:

Of course, we’ll go over everything together and give you instructions on how to sail the boat.

In the event of a storm (stable winds above 15 m/s), the boat will not be rented out and we will refund 100% of the service fee.

If it’s raining and you don’t want to go to the sea, we’ll find another time together.
