Terms of Use
Effective Date: October 12, 2026
Yacht Supply, LLC (“Boatwork,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website Boatwork.co and related services. Boatwork displays reviews and ratings on a variety of service contractors and marine service providers (collectively, “Service Providers”) to allow you, the user, the opportunity to read about the experiences other users have had with these Service Providers and to provide your own reviews and ratings. Boatwork also facilitates the connection between boat owners and Service Providers through quote requests, lead generation, online bookings, and related services. All products and services offered by Boatwork shall be defined herein as “Service” or “Services.”
In order to use the Service, you must read and accept all of the terms and conditions in these Terms of Use (this “Agreement”). This Agreement may be modified by Boatwork from time to time at our sole discretion. By accepting this Agreement, you also agree that your use of Boatwork-branded websites or other websites we operate may be governed by separate terms and conditions and privacy policies.
BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ALL OF THE TERMS, CONDITIONS, AND NOTICES CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT JUST AS IF YOU HAD SIGNED THIS AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT USE THE SERVICE.
1. The Boatwork Service
Boatwork is a platform that connects boat owners with marine service professionals. Boatwork displays consumer reviews and ratings on Service Providers and provides you with the opportunity to submit your own reviews and ratings based on first-hand experiences.
(a) Revenue Model. Boatwork earns revenue from Service Providers who pay for enhanced storefronts, marketing services, and other premium features, and from a fee charged to Service Providers on bookings paid through the Platform. Service Providers who meet certain eligibility requirements may pay Boatwork to advertise their services to you.
(b) No Endorsement. Boatwork does not endorse any Service Provider. The inclusion of a Service Provider on the Platform does not constitute a recommendation. You should conduct your own due diligence before hiring or engaging any Service Provider.
2. Registration and Account
As a condition of your use of the Service, you agree to: (a) provide Boatwork with true, accurate, current, and complete information as prompted by our registration forms; and (b) maintain and promptly update the truthfulness, accuracy, and completeness of such information. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your account.

- Boatwork may redact, delete, or reject Content that does not conform to our publication criteria, which may change at Boatwork's sole discretion.
6. Content License
Although Boatwork does not claim ownership of your Content, by submitting Content you grant Boatwork an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, fully paid, worldwide license to use, copy, perform, display, reproduce, adapt, modify, and distribute such Content and to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works, such Content, and to grant and authorize sublicenses of the foregoing. You also grant Boatwork all rights necessary to prohibit the subsequent aggregation, display, copying, duplication, reproduction, or exploitation of your Content by any other party.
Boatwork may display promotions or advertisements near, with, or adjacent to your Content in any form or media. The manner, mode, and extent of such placement are subject to change at Boatwork's discretion without notice.
7. Publication and Distribution of Content
Boatwork does not guarantee the accuracy, integrity, quality, or appropriateness of any Content transmitted through the Service. Boatwork acts as a platform for the publication and distribution of user-submitted Content and Service Provider responses. All Content is the sole responsibility of the person who originated it. By using the Service, you may be exposed to Content that is inaccurate, misleading, or offensive. You agree that you must evaluate and bear all risks associated with the use of any Content.
Boatwork has no obligation to screen, preview, monitor, or approve any Content but reserves the right to review and delete Content that, in its sole judgment, violates this Agreement. Under no circumstances will Boatwork be liable for any Content, including Content that contains errors, omissions, or defamatory statements, or for any loss or damage incurred as a result of the use of any Content. You waive the right to bring or assert any claim against Boatwork relating to Content and release Boatwork from any and all liability for or relating to any Content.
8. Service Providers
Boatwork does not endorse and is not responsible or liable for any Content, data, advertising, products, goods, or services available from or through any Service Providers. Your dealings with or participation in promotions of any Service Provider are between you and such Service Provider exclusively and do not involve Boatwork. You should make whatever investigation you deem necessary or appropriate before hiring or engaging Service Providers.
You agree that Boatwork is not responsible for the accessibility or unavailability of any Service Provider or for your interactions and dealings with them. You waive the right to bring or assert any claim against Boatwork relating to any interactions or dealings with any Service Provider and release Boatwork from any and all liability for or relating to any such interactions or dealings.

10. Payment Terms and Bookings
(a) Fees Paid to Boatwork. Certain features of the Service require payment, including but not limited to lead purchases, marketing services, and premium features for Service Providers. All payments are processed through Stripe, our third-party payment processor. By making a payment, you agree to Stripe's terms of service. All fees are stated in U.S. dollars and, unless otherwise specified, are non-refundable.
(b) Bookings Through Boatwork. Some Service Providers let you book and pay for a service on their storefront. When you do:
- The Service Provider is the seller. The business named at checkout sells the service to you and is the merchant of record. Your payment goes directly to that business's Stripe account. Boatwork facilitates the booking but is not a party to the sale and does not hold your payment.
- Payment. You pay on a Stripe-hosted checkout page. Your card details go to Stripe, not to Boatwork, and Stripe's terms and privacy policy apply to the payment.
- Time slots. A time slot is held for about 35 minutes while you check out. Your booking is confirmed only when your payment succeeds; if it does not, the slot is released.
- Prices and taxes. The Service Provider sets its prices and is responsible for any taxes on the service.
- Cancellations, refunds and service issues. These are governed by the Service Provider's own policies. Contact the Service Provider directly; replies to booking emails go to the Service Provider. Any refund is issued by the Service Provider. Card disputes (chargebacks) are between you, your card issuer and the Service Provider.
- Section 8 (Service Providers) applies to every booking, including the services you book and pay for.
11. Disclosure of Information
As Boatwork continues to develop its business, it might sell or buy other companies or assets, or be acquired or have substantially all of its assets acquired by a third party. You hereby consent to the transfer of your information as one of the transferred assets and to be used for any purpose allowed under this Agreement.
12. Term and Termination
This Agreement is effective as long as you use the Service or maintain an account. Boatwork may, for any reason in its sole discretion, immediately terminate this Agreement, your account, and your access to the Service. Termination of your account will include removal of your access to the Service, deletion of your password, and may include deletion of Content associated with your account. Sections of this Agreement that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including without limitation Sections 6, 7, 10, 16, 17, 18, 19, 22, and 24.
13. Modification of Terms
Boatwork reserves the right to modify this Agreement at any time. We will post the updated Agreement on our website with a revised effective date, and we will notify you of material changes before they take effect, for example by email to the address on your account or by a notice on the Platform. Your continued use of the Service after we notify you of a change constitutes your acceptance of the modified Agreement; you do not need to accept the change again by checkbox or signature. If you do not agree with a change, your sole recourse is to stop using the Service and close your account.
14. Modification and Discontinuance of Service
Boatwork reserves the right at any time to limit access to, modify, change, or discontinue the Service with or without notice. Boatwork shall not be liable to you or any third party for any limitation, modification, change, suspension, or discontinuance of the Service. Boatwork has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or failure to store any Content or other communications maintained or transmitted by the Service.

24. Service Provider Bookings and Payments Terms
This Section applies to Service Providers who accept bookings and payments through the Platform (“Bookings”). It is in addition to the rest of this Agreement. By turning on Bookings or accepting a booking, you agree to this Section.
(a) Access. Bookings is available only to Service Providers that Boatwork invites. Boatwork may turn Bookings on or off for any Service Provider at any time, at its discretion.
(b) You Are the Seller. You are the seller and merchant of record for every service booked through your storefront. Customers pay your Stripe account directly. You are responsible for your prices, delivering the service, cancellations, refunds, customer service, and responding to payment disputes. Boatwork never holds customer funds and is not a party to your sale to the customer.
(c) Stripe. Payments are processed by Stripe. To use Bookings you must set up a Stripe account through the onboarding shown in the Platform and accept the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Services Agreement. Stripe verifies your identity and handles payouts. Stripe's processing fees are charged to your Stripe account. Payouts, negative balances and amounts debited for disputes are handled between you and Stripe under that agreement.
(d) Boatwork Fee. Boatwork charges a fee of $5.99 for each paid booking. The fee is deducted automatically from the payment when the customer pays. The fee is non-refundable, including when you refund the customer or a payment dispute is decided against you.
(e) Taxes. You are responsible for determining, collecting and paying any sales, use or other taxes on the services you sell. Checkout does not add a separate tax line, so your listed prices must account for any tax that applies. Boatwork does not collect or pay taxes on your sales.
(f) Prohibited Services and Conduct. You may not use Bookings to sell services that are illegal, that you are not licensed or insured to perform where a license or insurance is required, or that Stripe does not allow. You may not misrepresent your services, prices or business. Boatwork may turn off Bookings for a Service Provider that breaks this Section.
(g) Customer Data. You receive the customer's name, email address, phone number and booking details. You may use them only to deliver that booking and to communicate with the customer about it, and you must protect them and comply with applicable privacy laws. You may not use them for marketing unless the customer separately agrees.
(h) Disputes and Refunds. You agree to respond promptly to customer refund requests and to payment disputes, using the tools Boatwork provides or as Stripe requires.
