We appreciate your interest in fishing with Maverick Sportfishing and want you to be fully informed about our payment and cancellation policies.
Reservation and deposit requirements
Reservations made more than 30 days in advance: a 50% deposit is required at the time of booking. Reservations are not confirmed until the deposit has been received.
Reservations made less than 30 days in advance: full payment (100%) is required to confirm the reservation.
Important notes
- Availability may change at any time before we receive payment and officially confirm the reservation.
- The remaining balance must be paid no later than 30 days before your first scheduled day of fishing to keep the reservation.
Payment methods
- We accept payments in U.S. dollars by wire transfer or credit card.
- Checks are no longer accepted.
- Once your deposit is received, we will send you written confirmation of your booking.
Cancellation and rescheduling policy
Please review our cancellation and rescheduling policy carefully, as these terms apply once the reservation process has begun.
Same-day cancellations
A full refund will be issued for cancellations made on the same calendar day the booking is confirmed.
Cancellations made 45 days or more in advance
- Cancellations are subject to a 2.5% processing fee.
- Alternatively, the reservation may be rescheduled, subject to a 2.5% rescheduling fee.
Cancellations made 44 to 11 days in advance
- Rescheduling is permitted, subject to a 2.5% rescheduling fee.
- Cancellations are not permitted during this period.
Changes made 10 days or less in advance
No cancellations or rescheduling are permitted within 10 days of the scheduled service, except in cases of severe weather or events considered force majeure.
Any adjustment to a reservation, including rescheduling, incurs a 2.5% fee. Managing changes requires resources, and we appreciate your understanding.
Boat availability and substitution
On rare occasions, mechanical issues may arise with a vessel. In such cases, we reserve the right to provide a replacement vessel of equal quality.
- If no comparable vessel is available, we will prorate the trip based on the time fished and issue a corresponding refund.
- If no replacement vessel is available and no alternative can be arranged, we will issue a full refund for the affected trip. This refund is the sole remedy available to the client.
While we make every reasonable effort to maintain our vessels to high operational standards, unforeseen circumstances may occasionally arise. We appreciate your understanding in such cases.
Cancellations due to health or personal emergencies
In cases of documented death or severe health conditions that prevent travel, we will evaluate each case individually. If approved, a partial refund or credit may be issued, subject to administrative fees.
Changes due to weather conditions
Safety is our top priority. If adverse weather makes fishing unsafe:
- We reserve the right to cancel or reschedule the trip.
- We will issue a full refund if the trip cannot be rescheduled.
When an owner decides to use their boat
On rare occasions, if the owner of a vessel decides to use their boat, we will offer you a comparable replacement vessel of equal quality. If no suitable vessel is available, we will reschedule your trip or provide a refund.
