Please help!
In November we charted a 44 trawler to see how we would like one. It was only a two day charter and we had a Coast Guard Captain of their choice on board at all times underway. All was uneventful. At the end we spent some time washing the boat down from stem to stern. Their captain checked us out and we departed after checking in with the office staff. As a condition of the charter we were required to send a check for 8K as a security deposit that was supposed to be returned in no more than 30 days. Well the 30 days came and went and no check.
Called them yesterday and office said mentioned they had a diver go down to find prop damage?? Called to day manager away on the dock.
I need to hand this to an attorney. Have several friends here but they are NJ bar not Fla.
This is driving us crazy. Any recommendations?
Thank you
