A 15% service charge is added to the charter base rate and additional hourly rate. Wisconsin requires a 5.5% sales tax to be added to all charges.
Payments:
Deposits: Over 120 days out, 35% of the boat charge due within two weeks of the booking. Under 120 days out, 100% of boat due at booking.
All charges due 15 days prior to charter. Cancellations more than 120 days out are refundable (less 10%), non-refundable thereafter.
Directions and Alternate Docking:
Boats typically depart from the Riviera Docks on the corner of Wrigley Dr. and Broad St. in downtown Lake Geneva. However, alternate docking can be accommodated. There is a nominal charge for boarding at locations other than the Riviera Docks. On Saturday charters starting before 7pm it is an extra hour boat charge.
