Title: we have dates and a contract!
Post by: alantani on November 15, 2018, 03:37:55 AM
the dates for our 8 day trip next year are october 15-23, 2019.  the charter price went up quite a bit to $57,300, so that would be $2387.50 each for 24 guys.  adding 15% tip makes it $2745.62.  the mexican permits are always unknown, but have typically been $85.  a guadalupe permit has been $250 each in the past, but those are too unreliable.  a 50% deposit is due by april 1, 2019, so i will start collecting checks in february for the boat ride and tip only, $1372.81, then a second round of checks for the balance in july.  thanks!  alan

I'm really looking forward to join this trip one year... though it looks like it may be too late for '19!

Ever consider running two charters per year?    ;)

Alan is really at the point where he could open up his own brokerage. I'm sure he could fill 2 Cedros, 2 SOA and at least a half dozen Nor Cal trips. Throw in a couple up here in the North for salmon, ling and halibut and maybe a cow trip and he has his 1 trip  month and then some. We are so lucky that he treats us so well for so little.
