I was happy to find this newer way to experience the Elkhorn Slough on a catamaran with my son and grandkids. The ship is new, pristine, and comfortable. The tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and knew the environment well. We went out on a calm sunny day, but there was wind on the water, so be sure to pack a jacket with a hood if you have one (hats may blow off) and some sunglasses and binoculars if you have them. Highly recommend!
