I will agree with all of what SBASS1 said. I run a small charter boat. Any good captain will refund or reschedule the trip if the weather is poor. I would also get the money upfront from your friends. Most charters want 50% for a deposit, maybe your buddies do not know this. I would get as much money as possible and tell them the money is not refundable if they back out.

When you speak to the captain make sure you talk about the type of fishing he does. Ask him what and how he excepts to fish at that time of year. Ask what fish he would be targeting. Most captians I speak with are just the same as any other fishing addict, once you get them started in a conversation they will tell you what you need.

Hope you have a good time, and learn lots.
