    “The reason I chose it was because I liked the look of the boat when I walked past it the first time. I then went up to the desk and asked for more information. I decided that a lunch cruise on the Harbour with my wife and daughters would be the best way to celebrate my 75th birthday. And it was! We al loved it.
