Going rate seems to be $300 per day plus travel and lodging. The owner pays for gas if aboard.

I don't want to be foolish with my limited experience but I would like to gain experience.
John Byrd ran the "Sterling" from SSI Marina and has ran boats internationally as well, i.e., knows his shizz.....

Ashley is slammed, I dont know about Scott......

$300/day seems reasonable. I would want AT ALEAST $150/day after all expenses..... Thats a lot of responsibility.........
