Reviews
I just wanted to email to thank you for a brilliant barbeque cruise yesterday (Saturday 11 July 2015). We came along to celebrate my daughter's 15 birthday. We were so pleased with the format of the afternoon. Humorous staff, good food and a great atmosphere. To top it all, a birthday cake - what a kind gesture. I would definitely recommend your cruise to others. In fact, 2 of the mums of girls on the trip took details with a view to booking themselves.
