Terms and Conditions
On all boat charters (even if not fishing), NOT INCLUDED is an 8 day “boat transportation license” for $15 (cash only payable at the time of boarding and required for adults over 18 who go out on a boat regardless if they are fishing or just riding along).
Tips to your crew, we get asked all the time “how much should we tip” and I always say that it is up to you. It’s a “tip” and if you are very happy with the crew, then I usually recommend a tip like a nice restaurant of 20%. You give to the Captain of the boat and he will distribute it evenly among the crew. You may also pay crew tips at the office with your credit card.
If booking a charter, please arrive at Playa Herradura by 7:00 AM, where you will take the water taxi out to our vessel.
NOTE THAT A FULL DAY FISHING IS FOR 9 HOURS TOTAL but no later than 4:30 pm (so if you come late, we still have to return by 4:30). We fish in any safe weather conditions. Should you not want to go out on the day you have booked due to weather, it is your choice and we will attempt to reschedule on another date while you are here (not for future trips) if we have a boat available at 6:00 pm prior to the date you want to try again. There are NO REFUNDS if you decide not to fish or if you elect to return early on any charter.
We can arrange a pickup service from Jaco, Herradura or within Los Suenos (Marriott Hotel or Los Suenos Condominiums & Villas). Please advise us by 5:30 pm the day before your charter date if you require a pickup.
Vessel Trouble
Please note occasionally boats can have mechanical problems, in this situation Silky Johnson Sport Fishing reserves the right to substitute a boat with a replacement one of equal quality or issue credit for a future trip. Note that all of our boats are “express” type boats with an open design.
Fuel Surcharge
Due to the continual rising cost of fuel, Silky Johnson Sport Fishing reserves the right to increase fuel charges without notice. The current pricing is based on $5.00/gallon fuel prices and fees per gallon. In the event that at the time of your charter it is higher, we will have to pass that cost on to you at the time of the charter.
