Sure but what if the owner is the captain?I only tip the DM and captain. I figure the owner built his profit into the dive trip price.

Well, I did not tip the owner.
Instead, I took him and his wife out twice for drinks
and lunch! Cost more than a tip, but a lot more fun
for everyone!!!
What's the appropriate amount of sauerbraten for a two-dive charter?Food which is typical for your homecountry but not available abroad or at least very expensive (for them!) to buy is usually very appreciated, too.
I agree, Andy. I usually bring along some DVDs of recent movies for the crew. They are always appreciated. (But cash is still king.)Hi Vladimir, I don't know the "exchange rate" with Sauerbraten but regarding Salami I would say half of a Salami ;-)
But now seriously: When I know or think that they might be happy to get something typical from germany (or more general from your homecountry / country of residence) and it doesn't cost me that much I don't mind carrying it with me as long as it's not too heavy, breakable,... .
