*Captain Information - Important Details*
We offer both "Captained" and "No Captain" charters, but a captain is required for all bookings. The captain’s fee is NOT included in the Boatsetter price and must be paid separately and directly to the captain. A "Captained" charter simply provides an estimated cost of what guests will pay the captain.
🚨 A USCG-licensed captain is REQUIRED – No exceptions. The captain's fee is NOT included in the Boatsetter price and must be paid separately and directly to the captain.🚨
Per USCG regulations, we cannot provide a captain. However, we will provide you with a vetted list of 5-10 experienced captains who are familiar with our vessel. You are responsible for selecting and coordinating with your chosen captain.
Captain’s Rate: $100-$150 per hour (paid directly to the captain).
Gratuity: Suggested at 15-20% of the captain's total fee (not included).
Once your booking is confirmed, we will send you the list of approved captains.

On the day of your charter, we have the authority to deem whether weather conditions are considered safe or unsafe.
