Terms of Use

The rules of the road for using Captains Grid. Last updated July 3, 2026.

Acceptance

By using Captains Grid you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. These terms apply to visitors, members, advertisers, and anyone who submits a listing or inquiry.

Who can use it

You must be at least 16 years old and able to enter a binding agreement. If you use the site on behalf of a business, you confirm you are authorized to do so.

Accounts

You are responsible for keeping your login secure and for everything that happens under your account. Provide accurate information and keep it current. We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms or harm the network.

Listings, profiles, and moderation

Every submission is reviewed before it is published. We may edit, decline, or remove any content that is inaccurate, misleading, unsafe, or off-mission, at our discretion. A verified badge reflects our review at a point in time, not a guarantee. You keep ownership of what you submit and grant us a license to display and promote it on the platform.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • Post false, fraudulent, or misleading listings or credentials.
  • Harass, impersonate, or endanger other members.
  • Scrape, resell, or misuse directory, network, or contact data.
  • Upload malware or attempt to break, overload, or bypass the site's security.
  • Use the platform for anything illegal.

The marketplace is a connection point, not a broker

Captains Grid introduces owners, captains, crew, businesses, and buyers. We are not a party to any deal, hire, charter, sale, or transaction between members. We do not hold funds and we are not a yacht broker, employer, or agent. Do your own due diligence before you hire, sign, or send money.

Advisory and captain reviews are opinion

Guides, captain reviews, red-flag notes, and advisory content are informed opinion offered in good faith from the operational side of yachting. They are not a survey, a legal opinion, a financial recommendation, or a warranty. Before you buy a vessel or wire any deposit, get a professional pre-purchase survey and independent advice. Verify operating figures on destination guides before you rely on them.

No warranty

The site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee that listings are accurate, that the site is uninterrupted, or that any outcome will result from using it.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Captains Grid is not liable for indirect or consequential damages, or for losses arising from your dealings with other members or third parties. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

Changes

We may update these terms as the platform evolves. The date at the top shows the latest version. Continued use after a change means you accept it.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
