The boat boards at 11:00am and 2:00pm and departs promptly at 11:30am and 2:30pm. We recommend arriving 15 minutes prior to boarding.

It is a great experience! The ship is beautiful to walk around, it is a nice break from all the crazy of downtown, and the narrator does a wonderful job giving you a quick history lesson of landmarks on the coast. We did the lunch, the food is nothing fancy or anything to rave over, but I still think it is worth doing for the experience!

This was lots of fun! The music on board was a treat! Bartender made a great drink! Scenery was terrific and we were given lots of information about the areas we passed. So glad we went!

Enjoyed the experience. The MC was great and very informative. Was a windy day but surprisingly smooth. Band added atmosphere. Bring your ear plugs!
