Depending on the location of the customer
a transportation fee may be added for the captain to travel to your specific location. This will be discussed before the charter date.
These fees include / tolls / fuel / time the captain needs to get to your vessel. If the trip consists of the vessel only going one way, the customer is responsible for arranging transportation to the original point of origin.
Insurance
You must be fully insured and have Sea Tow or Tow Boat US accounts. The boat owner must provide this documentation before the charter leaves the dock. Failure to do so can result in termination of services.
If for any reason the boat breaks down during the trip, the captain will get paid until the vessel is safely at the dock.
Travel fee
Depending on the location of the vessel a transportation fee may be added for the captain to travel to your specific location. This will be discussed before the charter date.
(This is not included in the rate of the charter.)
These fees include but are not limited to tolls / fuel / time the captain needs to get to your vessel. If the trip consists of the vessel only going one way, the customer is responsible for arranging transportation to the original point of origin.
Weather conditions
If the weather does not cooperate, or there are high winds scheduled for the day, a full refund and/or reschedule will be accommodated. If the captain does not feel safe departing during specific weather conditions, he/she has the final say of the charter. It is the captain’s discretion to assess and make a final determination.
During the course of the day if the weather changes, and the trip is cut short, there will be a prorated fee for the charter, and you will not be charged for the entire day.
Charter schedule
Charters end when the boat is safely secured to the dock. Charters are to be paid in full at the completion of the trip. During each charter, the captain will arrive 15-30 minutes early to familiarize themselves with your boat. Each boat is unique, and we want to make each and every charter as comfortable as possible.
Cancellations
Cancelations that are within 24 hours of the service date are subject to a $100.00 cancellation fee. Severe weather will not be held against you.
