From start to finish was full of laughs, the captain and crew were fabulous and funny, they had such good banter between them. We anchored and snorkelled at the most beautiful spots. The food was top notch and plentiful especially the chilli. Drinking from a goonbag, listening to some tunes as the sun went down was just the best. Comfy beds and clean toilets. Really, really didn’t want to step off the boat to go home. Dale, Xavier and Caleb you were all fantastic and we miss you!”
