Terms and Conditions

Once a charter is agreed upon, a 50% deposit is required to reserve the sail.  

 10+ days prior to charter date:

• You may cancel your charter and will receive a refund of your deposit minus a 10% service fee.
• You may reschedule your charter until November 30th of the same year’s charter season for free.

0-10 days prior to charter date:

• Refund of deposit is not available.
• Rescheduling is not available.

Illness cancellations (including Covid): 

• You may reschedule a charter cancelled due to illness, as long as Captain Eric is contacted 8 hours prior to the charter start time, to a future morning or afternoon charter scheduled on a Monday through Thursday (excluding holidays) for the same year your charter is booked. Cancellations within the 8 hour time period prior to the charter start time will result in the forfeiture of your deposit.  Because refunds are not available for illness cancellations, I recommend travel insurance if you are from out of town.

If we cancel due to bad weather, you may reschedule. If you are unable to reschedule, your deposit will be fully refundable (I will absorb the transaction fee).  

• Bad weather is defined as excessive wind as determined by me, temperatures below 40 degrees Fahrenheit, an Air Quality Index above 200, and/or chance of rain greater than 40% that lasts for more than 30 minutes confirmed by radar (using weather.com as our source).  
• We need to wait until the day of the charter (at least two hours prior to our charter) so we can interpret radar projections. 

• Infants and children, regardless of age, are included in the six-person maximum allowed on board. This is requirement by the United States Coast Guard.
• I will provide a life jacket to any passenger wishing to wear one
• Passengers twelve years old and under are required by law to wear life jackets while on the vessel.
• Parents or guardians are responsible for determining if their minors between the ages of 13-17 must wear a life jacket.
• The person booking the charter is required to share this life jacket policy with all members of their group.
• I reserve the right to cancel your charter and keep your deposit if you or a member of your party arrives inebriated.
• A waiver required by my insurance company must be signed in person.
