Additional trip costs

We have priced our charters for two people. There are also variable costs for any custom charter. These costs depend on fuel surcharges, the number of guests, and meal preferences. An invoice for these supplemental expenses will be provided before your departure.

• Meals and beverages for additional guests.
• Beer, wine, and alcohol.
• Fishing license and bait.
• Unanticipated fuel price spikes.

We require a 50% deposit for your charter at the time of booking. The unpaid balance is due 90 days before the trip departure date.
