Review for: 1 Hour Happy Hour Cruise

the boat crew has a list of people they are expecting. just need to announce your name. they are super chill and friendly. the cruise was nice. just note that the cheese board is huge but they only prepared 2 of them which is to be shared with others on the cruise

Review for: 1 Hour Happy Hour Cruise

The weather was originally great, but it started getting very windy right before we boarded. The whole boat was rocking back and forth. The captain tried his best to navigate to a more stable area, and we started enjoying the cheese platter and drinks. It's a shame because it would have been even better with good weather.
