“Fantastic trip. We went on an afternoon sailing on a beautiful sunny day, had a great time. The crew are very friendly and the commentary on board was very good, lots of information… On board, there are all the facilities you need and seating inside and out, very clean. Saw a lot of seals and quite close up too. Going under the bridges was great too. Would definitely recommend this trip for young and old.” - Review
