Dive School de Grevelingen · Version 1.1 · Scharendijke, May 2026

We (Duikschool de Grevelingen, a trade name of Expeditie 82 B.V., also the lessor, or the dive school) rent out complete diving equipment and individual parts thereof to certified divers. To ensure that renting equipment is pleasant and safe for everyone, we apply the following conditions.

1. Valid certification

Equipment is only rented to divers with a valid diving certificate. When collecting the equipment, we ask for a valid ID and a diving certificate. Additionally, a renter must be 18 years or older, and a deposit is required.

2. Use and responsibility

The renter is responsible for the correct use of the rented equipment. Always handle the equipment carefully and use it only for its intended purpose: recreational diving within the limits of your training and experience.

3. Inspection and reporting of damage

Upon collection, the equipment is inspected together. You must confirm yourself that the rented equipment is functioning correctly and as expected. Always check the equipment again before use. If in doubt, discuss this before using the equipment for a dive. If damage occurs during use or something does not function properly, report this immediately upon return. Damage due to improper use, negligence, or loss of equipment will be charged to the renter. Normal sales prices apply. In case of damage or loss, the lessor is entitled to withhold the deposit.

4. Return clean

We kindly request that the equipment be returned rinsed, clean, and as dry as possible. Return suits as you wear them (not inside out). If the equipment is returned dirty, we may charge cleaning costs, which will be deducted from the deposit.

5. Loss or theft

In case of loss or theft of (part of) the equipment, the renter is responsible for the replacement costs, based on normal sales prices. Therefore, never leave diving equipment unattended and ensure it is secured properly during all dives.

6. Timely return

Rent always applies to the agreed period. In case of late return without prior consultation, additional costs may be charged. These costs will be deducted from the deposit.

7. No rental of mask and mouthpiece

For hygienic reasons and for the diver’s comfort, we do not rent diving masks or provide mouthpieces on the primary second stage regulator. You must purchase or bring these yourself. A well-fitting mask is an important part of the basic equipment and greatly contributes to the diver’s enjoyment and comfort during diving.

8. Dive cylinders and regulators

Cylinders are provided filled (appr. 200 bar). Indicate when booking whether you need a DIN or INT connection. Regulator sets are supplied with a primary second stage, octopus, submersible pressure gauge, and inflator hose. When renting a regulator set, we assume that the user is familiar with its use.

9. Rules and restrictions

Lending prohibited: It is not allowed to rent or lend the rented diving equipment to third parties.

Repairs: All repairs or replacements of (parts of) the diving equipment due to damage caused by improper use or negligence are at the renter’s expense.

Proof of report: In case of theft, the renter must provide proof of a police report.

10. Use of dust cap

It is the renter’s responsibility to correctly attach the dust cap to the first stage regulator after disconnecting it from the valve. This prevents water and/or debris from entering the first stage. Maintenance costs for the entire regulator set due to water infiltration or debris are at the renter’s expense and may be deducted from the deposit.

11. Cancellation and deposit

In case of cancellation of a confirmed booking, a reservation fee of €3.50 per transaction will be retained to cover payment processing costs. In case of cancellation less than 24 hours before the start of the first rental day, the full rent will be charged. The deposit will be refunded within seven working days after correct return of the equipment, provided there is no damage, loss, dirty equipment, or late return. We may use the deposit to offset any costs. In case of cancellation, the deposit will be refunded.

12. Force majeure

If the lessor is unable to fulfil a confirmed booking due to force majeure, you will be informed as soon as possible. The full rental amount and deposit will then be refunded. We are not liable for any consequential damages resulting from this.

13. Insurance

As lessor, we are not liable for damage to or loss of personal belongings of the renter during the rental period. You are strongly advised to take out a diving insurance policy that covers personal liability and diving-related incidents.

14. Applicable law and amendments

These conditions are governed by Dutch law. We reserve the right to amend these conditions at any time. The current version is always available at diveschool.pro, where you will also find our privacy statement.
