Very friendly service oriented organization. Instructions were done in a very clear and friendly way. The boat was clean and offered a lot of space for a group of twelve people.

Overall a good experience.

Found the website difficult and buggy but you do get a really helpful real person on the chat line and they do sort things out. I didn't want to fill in my payment details until I had a conversation with the boat owner so I possibly did things the wrong way around. Nevertheless, very helpful and despite the odd issue they seem pretty good.
