Hi Alan, Thank you for the review. I am truly sorry you are disappointed in the experience specifically the weather and the taxes you had to pay. The fees / Taxes were communicated to you in every step of the booking process including the advertisement itself under exclusions, a reminder to you when I accepted the booking, the charter agreement you signed via DOCUSIGN, and the confirmation details you received. Other Viator experiences don’t include the taxes because they don’t have to pay for commercial docking spaces that i have to pay for to operate this experience with the business license I carry for it. I separate these commercial docking fees because it goes to a 3rd party and to be able to give you the best deal possible i can’t have Viator taking a revenue share from the commercial fees I have to pay to this 3rd party. So until the software of Viator updates and offers a way to do this efficiently i have to do it manually. Unfortunately, the weather is the only attribute i can’t control. I always reschedule or cancel if it is raining, or if there is a small craft advisory, or gale warning in which it would be deemed unsafe to sail. I usually don’t cancel due to clouds or overcast as there is usually a lot of wildlife still to be seen. Majority of my clients here on Viator are coming from out of state or out of country so it can be difficult to reschedule with small window of opportunity for their scheduled duration times. However if you had communicated your needs directly with your window of stay i would have been happy to reschedule for the best day possible that i had available. I hope in the future instead of writing should’ve, would’ve, could’ve needs via keyboard to just communicate with the merchant you are doing business with as i am sure most business owners would go out of their way to be helpful and give you the best experience possible. It was a pleasure spending a moment in time with you, and I hope to sail with you again with perfect 10-15 knot winds and not cloud in the bay!! Until that time your sea lion friends, and favorite Captain / buddy awaits you in Marina del Rey!! Hope to see you again one day for another adventure!
