Default Sorry - Another Rate Increase

Fuel prices took a huge jump today at the marina, and a couple previous to this one too.

I am forced to raise the rate to $1450

I am only going up enough to cover the added fuel costs, and as always I want to be able to deliver a quality fishing experience.

This means being able to go where I think the fish are, and not limited to where we are able to fish to try to keep fuel costs down, by not running as far or fishing my way in, in the afternoon.

And as before, I feel obliged to sail for the price that the trip was originally booked, but am asking for a voluntary bump up to the current rate.

Nearly every charter so far this year has paid the current rate regaurdless of the price at which the trip was booked, and I apprecieate that. I truly have the best customers.

thanks,

Nothing else you can do Jay. I've gone up on my home inspection rates too. Fuel costs are biting us all in the butt.

Still not a bad deal. I think we all understand.
