Although I haven't personally been on this charter, all accounts indicate that you should probably have a few (50-ish) dives under your belt before taking on this endeavor.
The reasoning behind this suggestion has to do with the depth of the dives, the navigation, the propensity for fairly strong current, and the ZERO tolerance policy for mistakes. The divemasters and capitains don't jack around with stupid mistakes.
Also, it's a matter of courtesy. You wouldn't want to make a rookie mistake, get bent, and cause 12-15 other divers to lose their weekend of diving and their $400.
For the cost of a trip to the FG, you can get a trip to Cozumel for a week and practice in much safer conditions with divemasters in the water that are used to inexperienced divers. Plus, the food and beer is cheap!!!
