I will need a $25 deposit per four hour trip (1/2 day) and $50 per trip over four hours (6-8 hours). You can mail the deposit to my home address but please notify me via email so that I can hold that date open for you. You can also use a credit card to hold a trip. You can send your credit card number via email, fax or voice. If you plan to use your credit card for full payment, you will need to bring the same card with you so that I can physically swipe your card and you can sign your receipt. I also need your home address and phone number for my records. When you arrive in the Sarasota area I will need your local number so that we will be in contact if we have any changes due to weather or other. You can use a personal check or credit card for a deposit but I only take cash, credit cards or traveler checks for full payment on the day of the trip.
