After loading all our belongings onto the boat, the driver asked if we could pay up-front and suddenly the price became 150THB per person. As this was not what we had agreed to and the driver refused to take us for anything less, we unloaded our things and went to find a taxi instead.
Even though the taxi ended up costing us as much as the boat would have, we refused to take the boat on principle as we were furious at the driver's blatant attempt at trying to cheat us (obviously hoping that we'd want to avoid the hassle and just pay the inflated price) and decided to rather give our money to someone more honest.
After a mad dash to the pier, only to spend 30 minutes waiting for the ferry, we were eventually on our way to Koh Phangan.
