Customer further warrants that vessel is insured.
FINANCIAL POLICY
All invoices, including insurance claims, MUST be paid in full upon completion work. There will be no exceptions. Invoices are due upon receipt and become past due 10 days after the date of invoice. After 10 days, credit card on file will be used to cover balance due, unless prior payment method has been arranged.
Interest on unpaid invoices will accrue at 1.5% per month with a $25.00 minimum. An express possessory lien is granted on Customer’s boat to secure the amount of repairs thereto and released when outstanding balance is paid in full. If S3 is forced to take action for collection of any undisputed outstanding balance, Customer agrees to pay for all collection and/or attorney costs and fees.
