Introduction and Disclaimers

NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF SAFETY SHALL RESULT FROM PUBLICATION OF OR COMPLIANCE WITH THE RULES AND REGULATIONS IN THIS PUBLICATION. THEY ARE INTENDED AS A GUIDE FOR THE CONDUCT OF THE SPORT, AND ARE IN NO WAY A GUARANTEE AGAINST INJURY OR DEATH TO SPECTATORS OR PARTICIPANTS

The Alaskan Wet Dog race is dedicated to providing a reliable, consistent, safe and honorable watercraft race. The Alaskan Wet Dog race encourages safe and responsible riding and strives to promote a positive image for watercrafts and their owners.

This is a team race, consisting of two (2) persons and two (2) watercrafts. Persons wishing to take place in the Alaskan Wet Dog race that do not have a partner to run the race with can register on the website as a single racer. Single racers can then contact each other to find someone that is willing to partner up with them.

These participants will brave open oceans, shallow rivers, bad visibility, bad weather, rough water, and will be pushing their watercrafts and bodies to the limits to reach the finish line.

It is the world’s longest, toughest watercraft race, and it is a true test of human and equipment endurance. All participants will treat race officials with respect and recognize their decisions as final at all times.

Each participant is required to read the current years Alaskan Wet Dog Race event rules.

Each applicant acknowledges receipt of the current years Alaskan Wet Dog Race event rules, which shall be applicable to each participant. Participants accept and agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of The Alaskan Wet Dog Race Event Rules.

Each participant acknowledges that: The Alaskan Wet Dog has limited resources; is dependent on donors for a significant portion of its funding; functions with limited employed staff and hundreds of volunteers under only limited control of The Alaskan Wet Dog; and must organize the event in some of the most remote and uninhabited locations in Alaska in the most severe weather conditions. Under these circumstances, The Alaskan Wet Dog cannot and does not commit to perform obligations or responsibilities of any kind.

The Alaskan Wet Dog disclaims all obligations and responsibilities of every kind and nature.

While the Alaskan Wet Dog will attempt to perform all tasks it undertakes with reasonable care and effort, as determined in its sole and absolute discretion, it shall owe no duty of any kind or nature to participants, and it shall perform only such acts it deems necessary at its sole and absolute discretion. Participants shall have no claims, demands, suits or actions (“claims”) of any kind or nature against The Alaskan Wet Dog, its agents, servants, employees, directors, officers, contractors or volunteers, regardless of whether any such claim is in the nature of contract, tort or other type of claim, and regardless of whether any such claim is for injury or damage to person or property, except only if, and to the extent that, the claimant demonstrates, by clear and convincing evidence, that any such claim arises solely, directly and proximately from the intentional and willful wrongdoing by The Alaskan Wet Dog Race Board of Directors or by employed Wet Dog staff.

Each participant agrees, by participating in any event by The Alaskan Wet Dog Race, to release, indemnify, defend and hold harmless The Alaskan Wet Dog, its agents, servants, employees, directors, officers, contractors and volunteers, from and against any and all claims, specifically including claims by third parties, except only if, and to the extent that, the claimant demonstrates, by clear and convincing evidence, that any such claim arises solely, directly and proximately from the intentional and willful wrongdoing by The Alaskan Wet Dog Board of Directors or by employed staff.

The disclaimers, the limit on claims, and the agreement to release, indemnity, defend and hold harmless set forth herein shall apply to every act and omission of The Alaskan Wet Dog, its agents, servants, employees, directors, officers, contractors and volunteers, including, by way of example only, acts and omissions in planning, organizing, facilitating, staging, conducting, and judging the race and other Alaskan Wet Dog, events, and shall survive conclusion of the race and termination of the relationship between The Alaskan Wet Dog, and participant.

Each participant accepts and assumes all risks in any way arising from, related to, or connected with participation in any The Alaskan Wet Dog, events and each participant is required to obtain and maintain appropriate insurance covering all such risks.

In fact, formation, clean air, low crime rates, peaceful neighborhoods are really vital. But, our heartiness is really significant. All discount medicines save money, but few companies offer better deals than other online drugstores. Last ten years twenty percent of men aged 40 to 70 were unable to maintain an hard-on during sex. But it’s not a natural part of aging. Cialis is a drug used to treat varied sicknesses. What do you know about “viagra prescription“? Matters like “non prescription viagra” are very pop now. What do you already know about “cialis generic name”? This advice is common, but it can make all the difference if you need information about “generic for cialis”. There are sundry things that can engender impotence. Tell your health care vocational about all drugs you use, and those you will use during your treatment with the remedy.
