    Steve, I'm glad you're finally doing this. You've gone thru way too much hassle over no shows n its not fair to you at all

    It has been a few years since we have been on one of your cruises but it is amazing that you have held out this long on the deposit idea.

    Really when the boat is full of like minded people it really is a better trip.

    There's a lot of people it's not fair on:

    - the boat crew who show up for work only to get sent home again without pay.
    - the boat owners who turn others away because they've held spaces for us that end up empty
    - the cancuncare folk who do come expecting a private boat and dont always get it.
    - me who can end up out of pocket.

    Nothing planned just yet, I normally plan cruises about a month in advance if the numbers are there. So, I'll be looking at end of March at the end of Feb :)

    I definately agree with this steve, I have seen the attitude of a few of the no shows over the years, lack of respect sucks.. after all the time and trouble you go to, you should definately not be out of pocket. I am sure none of us mind paying a deposit......:daveandmo:

    I totally agree - this makes much more sense. I can't imagine anyone wishing to go will have a problem with this.
