Sounds like the 'boats' need to get a good lawyer. It would be funny if it really backfired in Sports Challet's face if they were made to pay for all of the charters that they cancelled even if the boat did not leave the dock!

The other opotion is for the boats to accept his deal at a reduced price. Remember it is the Captains discression on how to handle his boat. He could call 1/2 of the trips do to bad weather. He could take the divers to the worst places to dive and offer the worst service with Sports Challet groups.

THEN, on the way back to the shore give all of the divers handouts explaining the situation and how Sports Challet strong armed them.

The final blow...all of the Boats need to get togehter and not allow Sports Challet to book with them again. Let them find some beach to dive off.
