The price and the commentary were fantastic! The boat as advertised nice and quiet.Alcoholic beers and wines onboard were reasonably priced with a limited but nice selection.Only negative from my partner who chose the steak lunch was the meat was both tough and fatty.My Tasmanian Salmon was delicious though .Recommend it immensely we totally enjoyed the experience.

Great excursion around the Harbor both north and south The lounge upstairs was comfy if not a bit worn The Captain’s dialogue was informative even though the sound system cut in and out a bit. The crew were very attentive . The food was basic but quite eatable. Perfect time on the water returning at 2.15pm
