USER AGREEMENT - SAFETY, RESPONSIBILITY AND RELEASE

Using a kayak or any watercraft or motor/thruster and lithium batteries on any kayak, watercraft or for diving or swimming can be dangerous and involves certain risks which often cannot be predicted or avoided. Those risks include, but are not limited to, personal injury or death, property damage, which may result from, loss of control, collisions with other users or watercraft, swimmers, and natural and man-made objects and/or animals/plants. By choosing to use a Noisy River Outdoors product, you assume these risks and thereby need to know and practice water safety rules, responsible pedaling, paddling or motoring, and proper use and maintenance of your Noisy River Outdoors product(s) or any products purchased from Noisy River Outdoors to reduce these risks. Since it is impossible to anticipate every situation or condition which can occur while kayaking with paddles, manual pedal drive or under motor power in water, Noisy River Outdoors LLC can make no representation or warranty about the use and safety of Noisy River Outdoors products under all conditions.

By purchasing and/or using Noisy River Outdoors Products, you acknowledge, agree and understand the danger(s) involved in using any Noisy River Outdoors products and accessories.

You further: (1) acknowledge and agree that this waiver and assumption of risk is intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by applicable law and that if any portion thereof is held invalid, the balance shall nonetheless continue in full force and effect; (2) acknowledge and agree this assumption of risk and waiver provides for the release of legal rights; and (3) expressly waive whatever benefits may be available under North Carolina Civil Code, as follows: A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.
