- What is your cancellation policy?
For no shows, we do not refund deposits but we do give our clients a full year to use their deposit. For all other rentals, we require a 15 day written cancellation prior to your rental date to give a refund. Inside the 15 days, unless we are able to rent the boat out to someone else for your selected date or dates, only then will we issue a refund. No refunds are offered for last minute cancellations except for inclement weather but this has to be discussed with the captain. It is the captain that will deem whether the conditions are unsafe for boating. back to top
