Important Make-Up Charter Info – Please Read Carefully
To register, you may call (252) 441-6301 ext. 1, visit the Oregon Inlet booking desk, or complete the form below. Please note that submitting a request does not guarantee a trip, as availability depends on sufficient participation, boat availability, and weather conditions. If you are interested in a make-up charter, simply fill out the form and a reservationist will contact you once enough participants are secured and a vessel becomes available. At that time, we will confirm your spot and collect payment information for the following day’s trip.
Make-up charter requests may only be submitted within fourteen (14) days of your desired trip date, and trips are typically finalized within 24 hours of departure. All charters are limited to six passengers in accordance with U.S. Coast Guard regulations. By signing up, you agree to pay your share of a six-person charter, although groups of four or five may be accommodated if all participants agree to split the total cost evenly.
Please be aware that once a make-up charter is confirmed, refunds are only issued if the trip is canceled by the captain or the Oregon Inlet Fishing Center due to weather, mechanical issues, or participant changes. Boats are assigned on a rotational basis, and specific vessel requests cannot be accommodated. By submitting your request, you acknowledge and agree to abide by Oregon Inlet Fishing Center’s TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
