Is the paying customer owed no courtesy?
That's exactly what I was thinking. I'm not opposed to the idea of having to obey the rules of the skipper but surely then I should be made aware of same before I embark on the vessel. If I am on a vessel and starts eating my banana, not having known that it is a taboo on this particular boat, I would have been quite happy to toss it overboard if the skipper asked me to (in honouring his tradition). But if he yanks it out of my hand and throws it overboard I'm afraid we're way beyond courtesy.
OK, I won't go sue him or bring charges of theft or whatever. I will however think twice before using his services again and certainly not recommend his services to anyone else - not even to mention that he can forget to get any tip out of me.
