Hey jig- No problem ranting here about this subject!

When we put together Charters, we make it clear to expect to tip at least 15% and we collect half of that from each fisher before the boat leaves AND we tell them that after the trip, we'll come by again -before the boat docks- to collect the other half (7.5%) and any more they feel that the crew earned.

We give the first half to the 1st Mate and tell him that this is the first part and the second part total is strictly based on the crew's effort and attitude, not fishing success.

We've never had bad service or poor attitudes from our crew.
