What I had thought would be a nice, relaxing, and peaceful sailing experience actually turned out…read moreto only fuel my fury. After making the decision to move to another state, I wanted to book something special for myself so I reached out to book a sunset sail. After exchanging a few emails, and me specifically asking about payment, I was given the following response, "Yes we can do Sunday September 4 from 6 to 8 PM. There is no need for a deposit to hold that date. You can cancel at any time without a problem. If it's raining we won't go out. You may pay on the 4th. So as you see, we are pretty relaxed in our operations. When covid started, we tossed the rules out the window and it has proven to be much less stressful for everyone." He then went on to say, "Here are the four methods of payment: Paypal, Venmo, Cash, or Check. The total for a 2 hour cruise is $328.20. Let me know how you want to pay then that's all the information I need from you. Then I will send you a confirmation email that outlines exactly when and where we meet at the marina and other details." Since he said I didn't need to pay until the 4th, I waited until the date got closer. I reached out to him to ensure they got paid so I asked if he'd send me an invoice on paypal and give me the address for the marina so I could put in my GPS. He responded and said that he booked it for someone else because he had not heard from me in 13 days. I'm not sure why I needed to respond if he clearly said I didn't need to pay until the 4th. He mentioned "13 days" as if this was his deciding factor to book someone else. I believed I already had a reservation since he told me the date was available and there was no need to put a deposit to hold the spot. Now, apparently, I'm being punished for not paying.... and he didn't even call or email to let me know someone else wanted that time slot. It just doesn't make sense. He did apologize, but he made no effort to fix this. I told him he needed to get better at communicating with his guests and he agreed. But in any event, I'm the only one who takes a loss for this. So now I'll be leaving Washington without the experience. I told a lot of people about this sail boat cruise and everyone was excited that I was doing something for myself to get a little peace before I left. Now I'll have to go back and tell all those people that I didn't get to go because the "captain" couldn't handle his calendar and apparently the rules that were thrown out, only apply to those who have paid in advance, even though he says you don't have to. Smh. If you're looking for peace, don't use this service. If you like being let down and frustrated, definitely give them a try. What a joke.
