Re: Customary Gratuity?
Tip good for good service. Tip bad for bad service so they know you just did not forget or are a shmuck! Always tell captain about both in private if possible. Money talks bullshit walks. Fish cleaning , great service no service, equipment clean, crappy, carry stuff on off boat ? All figure into tip Capt. Effort also. If the Capt don't care hard to tip even if mate is great! $ 600 charter ok tip 100 great tip 200 piss poor tip 50 bucks! Example went on a 50 hr tuna open boat trip, First year mate or mates got 100 bucks second year same trip 240 tip. They had great service second year , just missed it 1st year. FYI. Caught 20 tuna sword and tilefish year 1 caught only 6 tuna year 2!
