Cancellation Policy (please read)

 

• The $100.00 deposit is to reserve your date and time slot.  This deposit is non-refundable unless the fishing trip is cancelled by  the Captain due to bad weather or unforeseen boat problems. This  cancellation is made at the dock on the day of the trip, only at the  Captain’s discretion. All other cancellations forfeit the $100.00  deposit.

• Our booking policy is to meet at the boat at the agreed time and place on the day of the trip. If the fishing trip is cancelled by the Captain due to bad weather, we will try to re-book your fishing trip for a better day if the customer’s schedule allows, otherwise we will cheerfully refund your entire $100.00 deposit.

• Cancellations by customers with less than a 72-hour phone call notice and no shows at the dock by customers on the day of the fishing trip will be charged to their credit card the full amount of the length charter slot they have  reserved. When you reserve a fishing trip, we do not book anyone else for that time slot.
