BOAT MOORING PERMIT
WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY,
ASSUMPTION OF RISK AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT
I, the undersigned, acknowledge that storing my dinghy on the bank of the Dike Road
involves procedures which may test a person’s physical capabilities and carries with it
the potential for serious injury and property loss. The risks include, but are not limited to,
those caused by the steep and rocky nature of the dinghy storage area facilities on the
bank of the Dike Road, my own physical condition, actions of other people, including but
not limited to, other mooring permit holders. I HEREBY ASSUME ALL OF THE RISKS
OF STORING MY DINGHY ON THE DIKE ROAD AND ALL OTHER RISKS ARISING
OUT OF MOORING MY BOAT IN THE CITY BOAT MOORING AREA. I realize that
liability may potentially arise from any negligence or carelessness of the person or
entities being released, from dangerous or defective equipment or property owned,
maintained or controlled by the persons/entities being released, or because of possible
liability without any negligence of the persons/entities released.
I certify that I am physically fit, am fully capable of climbing/walking on the rip-rap bank
of the Dike Road and to do all things relating to use and storage of my dinghy on the
Dike Road in connection with use of my boat moored in the Hudson boat mooring area,
and that I have not been advised otherwise by a qualified medical person. I hereby
assume full responsibility for any risk of bodily injury, death or property damage arising
out of or related to the Hudson Boat Mooring Area, whether caused by the negligence of
Releasees or otherwise. I acknowledge that this Accident Waiver and Release of
Liability form will be used by the City of Hudson and that it will govern my actions and
responsibilities as a boat mooring permit holder.
In consideration of my application and the City allowing me to moor my boat at the
Hudson Boat Mooring Area and store my dinghy on the banks of the Dike Road, I
hereby take action for myself, my guests, my executors, administrators, heirs, next of
kin, successors and assigns as follows:
(A) I WAIVE, RELEASE, AND DISCHARGE FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY
FOR MY DEATH, DISABILITY, PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY
