Back in July booked a trip with "Eric" and received a deposit for a bluefish trip for 9/13. With the weather forecast for the day we mutually agreed to move the trip to Saturday 9/27.
On Friday 9/26 call customer to confirm time of departure and to make sure they have direction as I always do for every trip. Confirmation of trip was made Friday night and time set for 6:30 AM .
Mate and myself get to boat at 6:00 AM and load boat with bait and ice. 6:30AM no show, 7:00 AM called and left a voice mail thinking they were lost, called again at 7:30 AM left another voice mail. At 8:30 it was time ,unloaded bait and ice and went home to have breakfast. Left 4 messages yesterday with out a call back? Why are people so inconsiderate.?? :mad:

That sucks! Hope you got a big enough deposit to get you and your mate out of bed.

Not sure yet give him a couple days. Something might have gone terribly wrong. Let's hope not but very possible.

That's rough captain. Unless there is some earth shattering reason...no show and no call is unacceptable in my book

we had the complete opposite happen yesterday...guy showed up sick as a dog (looked like hell) and gave his money over and said "i'm outta here". Took a strong guy with a lot of character to do that.

Not all people suck, there are some good ones left! Karma will get him Dan and it won't be pretty. I know that doesn't help your wallet though.

That's what deposits are for- security for him and the boat.

You left enough messages for him. Any more is a waste of time.

Cost of doing business. Yes it sucks, but at least you have the deposit.

Been there myself many times. Too many times. All new customers are the same roll of a dice.
