Not so hard to understand Kmaty. Price quoted was $750, odd considering his site has it for $600 (6hrs) and $700 (8hrs). Told him we were only 4 working on a 5th and maybe a 6th. Negotiated a price of $125 + 20% tip which puts us over his stated $600 price. Sal called later saying he had a 5th for us, great, all set.

He called back at 545 saying a regular called and, sorry, we were out. Actually not even a sorry. Kept telling me we were going on a whim. Not that his regular who booked the night before was doing it on a whim. Meanwhile one of the guys who pm'ed off the original request by ChefSam told Sam he called sal and is now going.

So.....I can only conclude that a split charter for more money was put together very late knocking us out.

Oh well, you live and learn. Took a chance last month on an unknown boat (to us), the Fishstix and Kris killed for us, great experience. This one not so hot.
