What's the going rate on tipping deckhands?

We are going on an offshore charter this weekend out of Foley, AL. We are fishing for grouper. The guy is one of our vendors and is basically covering everything except the deckhand tip. I'm thinking at least $300 a hand. Should we tip more?

For one deckhand with 4-6 people, about 100-150. Give 20 bucks more per person if he cleans your fish

$300 is a lot. I usually tip $100-$150 depending on my experience.

15% to 20% cost of the charter.

When I deck for a friend its usually between $100-200.
