The actual boat leaves from Baku's Ferry Terminal near the town of Alat and arrives about 100 kms south of Aktau at a port called Kuryk.
This video takes you on a little tour of the boat that I was on. You will see the setup, meals, and get good advice from other travelers who were there as well.
This is the phone number that I used to get information on boats arriving in Baku. They really couldn't tell you exactly when it would land or take off, but at least you had an idea if one would arrive that day or not.
+994559999124
Also check this website for live maritime boats. You can actually zoom into the Caspian Sea and see where the boats are.

I hope this video helps out other travelers as I couldn't find much information on it. Please leave comments about your trip and what you would/wouldn't do the next time around so we can help each other out!
