Terms & Conditions
Last updated: July 12, 2026
1. Booking & Reservations
All bookings submitted through this website are requests, not confirmed reservations. A booking is confirmed only after we review availability and respond to you directly. We reserve the right to decline any booking request at our discretion.
2. Pricing & Deposits
Captained Charters are billed at $125 per hour. Bareboat Charters, when available, are billed at $150 per hour. A refundable security deposit of $200 (Captained) or $500 (Bareboat) is collected upon booking confirmation and returned after a damage-free post-trip inspection. Add-on pricing is listed on our booking form and charged separately.
3. Cancellation Policy
Cancellations made 48 hours or more before the scheduled departure receive a full refund, including any deposit. Cancellations within 48 hours of departure forfeit the charter fee; the security deposit is still refunded. No-shows forfeit all fees and deposits.
4. Weather & Safety
Safety is our top priority. If weather conditions are deemed unsafe by the captain or operator, the trip will be rescheduled at no additional cost or a full refund will be issued. The captain has final authority on all weather-related decisions.
5. Guest Conduct
Guests must follow all safety instructions provided by the captain or in pre-departure materials. The maximum capacity is 8 passengers. Guests are responsible for any damage to the vessel caused by negligence, misuse, or reckless behavior. The captain reserves the right to end a charter early if guest conduct poses a safety risk; no refund will be issued in such cases.
6. Age & Identification
The primary renter must be at least 18 years old. For Bareboat Charters, the operator must meet all Texas boater education and licensing requirements. Valid government-issued photo ID is required at check-in.
