GROUP

We normally try
to charter the boat to groups of four or six guests but fully entertain
single cabin charters on discussion with our staff. Our group rates
for 7 day trips are:
- 6 Guests
$22,500.00 ($3,750 per person)
- 4 or fewer Guests
$19,000.00 ($4,750 per person for 4)
Rates
for Alaska in 2008 are noted above. Reservations
made prior to Sept 1, 2008 for 2009 will be at 2008 rates which are
approximately $500 per person lower than anticipated for 2009 due to fuel and
other increases.
PER
CABIN WEEKLY* RATES
We will
also book the boat on a per cabin
(double occupancy) basis. Call to find out available dates and rates for these
cruises as they vary with the week. Check out schedule page for
dates (look for light blue weeks to see established per cabin charters
currently booking and look for red text to see what is open!)
*one week = six

RESERVATIONS,
DEPOSITS & PAYMENTS
To confirm your charter and reserve your dates a deposit of 50%
must be received within 14 days of your reservation. The balance of the charter
fee is due 60 days prior to your charter.
Payments
can be made with personal check, wire transfer or money order.
CANCELLATIONS
& REFUNDS
If a
charterer cancels, deposits and
final payments are fully refundable only if the dates you have reserved are rebooked with
another charter. Partial booking of those dates will result in a prorated refund. If not
refunded, you may travel with us the same season on a cruise of similar value or length subject to
space and operations. In the unlikely event that we cancel a cruise due to a
mechanical breakdown,
you will receive a full refund of all monies paid directly to us.
TRIP INSURANCE
Many
travel advisors recommend trip insurance. Good trip insurance will cover
cancellation due to your illness or that of a family member as well as
cancellation due to inclement weather. It will even cover pre-existing
medical conditions if purchased at the time you book your trip and you are
capable of traveling at that time.
CHANGES
OF SCHEDULE AND CREW
If the charterer
needs to change a scheduled trip, we will make every effort to accommodate that
change, subject to the limitation of other scheduled trips.
Ursa Major
Yacht Charters
reserves the right to make changes in our schedules for any reason up to 6
months before the charter; or at any time when necessary for the safety of the
guests.
In the event of
mechanical breakdown, Ursa Major Yacht Charters reserves the right to make a timely substitute to
another boat of comparable or superior size and quality. We also reserve the right to
change or substitute crew members.
GETTING TO ALASKA
Please note that
our trips do not include airfare to and from Alaska or Mexico. Wherever you
are coming from you will need to arrive in Seattle and then take a flight
on Alaska Airlines to Juneau, Petersburg or Sitka for Alaska or from Los
Angeles to La Paz,
Cabo San Lucas or Loreto in Mexico. Ground transport from Los Cabo
is a 3-5 hour bus ride to La Paz or Loreto. We recommend
you fly into Loreto or La Paz directly. To help you make your flight
arrangements you can visit the Alaska Airlines web site by clicking

and Aero Mexico also fly to La Paz and Loreto with Continental is scheduled
to begin.
