Ok, so this may be a dumb question, but what is considered a "good" tip for a dockmaster...And then, a dockmaster like this gentleman at Shooter's who will make sure you have a spot? Do they typically do a good job keeping an eye on your boat for you, too?
Just curious...As I'm moving to South Florida, this would be good to know.. Thanks! |

Whatever you feel comfortable with, anywhere from a few bucks to ???? We had some large yachts in front of us at shooters, I am sure they gave more than I did, but between our group of four boats he made out more than OK:drink:

I don't live in Miami, but a hundo seems a bit crazy. I typically give the guy $5-$10 when we jump out of the boat and thank him for his help. Around here I see people not tip anything, the bars/restaurants provide the dock help as a gesture to the boating patrons. But it's cheap insurance!

If you have a pretty expensive boat like a Fountain, Skater, MTI, etc...Is a hundo pretty standard, a bit high, a bit low? I really have no idea?

Thats too much for one boat, heck that covers lunch for four at shooters, ya cant have the dockmaster making more than the restaurant owner. A better way to think about it may be somewhere similar to what you tip the waitstaff.
