In the second case, both the briefer and the boat cleaner seemed to think I might be interested in leaving them with a gratuity. In the last several years of chartering and crusing I've never tipped people at the charter operations. Execution at some has been better than others, but I never felt like anyone did something other than what was appropriate for the situation. Comments anyone? I agree. I've never tipped on a bare-boat, but I have received tips as the skipper on a paid charter. It would have to be something quite extraordinary for me to consider tipping one of the workers. However, I have sent letters of praise on occasion. Perhaps some of the cruise ship habits are creeping over into the charter business. Oh great.... -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
