Description:This report describes a pilot effort that develops a process for the systematic collection of data about the Alaska charter sector from charter business websites. The project included development of a database for storing the collected data from the Alaska charter business websites. In addition to data on price and trip offerings, a variety of other information presented on the websites were collected and used to characterize the types of businesses in the sector and their diversity across a range of characteristics. We note several differences between charter fishing businesses in International Pacific Halibut Commission (IPHC) Area 2C (Southeast Alaska) relative to Area 3A (Southcentral Alaska). This includes that average charter fishing trip prices in Area 2C are generally higher than in Area 3A for the same length trip.
