This option gives booking priority for 15 days, with no commitment on either side. If another client wishes to book the boat for the same date, the Compagnie des Grands Bateaux de Provence will inform the client, who will then have 72 hours to confirm their booking. After this period, without a booking from the client, the option will be cancelled automatically. <br><br><br><strong>Bookings<br><\/strong><br>A booking is only firm and final after acceptance and signature of the quote with the words \u201cbon pour accord\u201d (approved) and payment of a deposit as follows: 50% deposit on ordering, balance due on D-5 (five calendar days before the day of the service).

Article L.441-6 of the French Commercial Code specifies that late payment penalties are payable without any reminder being necessary. These penalties will apply from the date the principal is due until the date of full and actual payment. In accordance with the French Economic Modernisation Act (LME), in force since 1 January 2009, the late payment penalty rate is 3% per year. A partial dispute of the invoice can under no circumstances justify non-payment of the entire service covered herein. The only non-payment accepted may relate solely to the disputed amount, provided that the dispute is objectively justified and notified to the Compagnie des Grands Bateaux de Provence by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-element-6e0794c0\">\n<p class=\"gb-text gb-text-7079fbd1\"><strong>Updated May 2025<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/cnma.avocat.fr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><span style=\"font-size: inherit;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>General terms and conditions of sale English translation provided for information only.
