$65/person for 6 hours of fishing is an excellent price. That would barely cover my fuel costs. Gas prices at the pumps in RP are much higher than what we pay in AZ, and if you have to buy fuel at the harbor you'll pay pretty much double of AZ prices. And never mind the price of tackle, my leader set ups cost about $10 each, and if I get hooked on the bottom and lose braided line add about another $30. Throw in boat maintenance, launch or storage/dock fees, license fees, etc. Personally I'd gladly pay $65 and provide a good tip.
Dirty Sanchez, in my opinion its gonna all come down to weather. Most of the time its pretty windy in RP and if you catch good weather you're gonna have a great time, if its windy and rough it ain't fun and its diffiuclt to fish. Hopefully you'll catch good weather that weekend.
We love the brothers of El Gran Jefe and El Gran Patron. They have always charged us $35.00 for whale watching/fishing. We went out 15 miles for what seemed like 6 hours. There were 10 people.
We were on the About Time and the captain was talking about a boat/fishing club he belonged to so I do know it's a legitimate club and he was a great guy, great fishing trip and everyone is correct about your quote being very reasonable, especially for a holiday weekend, the guys for our wedding's party are going out with him again in October and it is going to be $75 I believe per person for a half day of fishing. Have fun and stay safe

That's awesome Miramar. It just blows me away they can take people out for around 6 hours at $35/person. For 10 people they make $350, about half goes for fuel, throw in all the extra expenses, doesn't leave much room for profit. Oh well, they're glad to make a couple bucks and people get to see whales. All works out in the end.
http://www.rockypointfishingclub.com was great! We originally wanted to go out Saturday, but the waters were off limits due to high winds, so we booked for Sunday instead. The co-op was friendly, and accommodating. Our group booked the El Gran Jefe with Pepe, and he was very informative.
We caught trigger fish, rock bass, and even a barracuda. They were great for the fish tacos we made that night :)

Thanks for the feedback, glad you got out. Those triggers are fun to reel in. Hope you guys had a great time!
