Davey's Locker and the fishing vessel are independent from each other and found out a couple days after the Manager Dave refused to give us a refund on unopened/unused tackle pack, torpedos and hooks. We check in with Davey's Locker and were sold incorrect equipment by Johnny at a cost of $57.63. The problem is onboard they were charging us $8 for the correct equipment when we were told at Davey's the vessel would have replacements at no cost if we were to lose ours. No fault to the vessel but the communication between both companies should be clear as day as where they are taking customers and what equipment is needed. About 30-35 people on board of a tour of 52 on 11/09 were given incorrect equipment so Davey's Locker profited over $1,500+ on equipment that was falsely sold to us. Now, that's criminal. The crew on board were very friendly and helped throughout the trip so this review is based on Davey's Locker and their staff.
