It depends on who cancels and when. The full story is told in our conditions of hire, a copy of which can be found in our ‘Cost & Terms’ page, but in short, if we cancel there is no charge. If you cancel late however, the CHARTER FEE is payable in FULL. If one of the party drops out, it makes no difference to overall CHARTER COST, you are paying for the boat, not the number in the party. Please remember we operating a business.
