So it was a bit chaotic when we first boarded, took a good while to get drinks but the bartenders handled it with grace and friendliness. The bigger portion of the boat was upstairs where it could fit more people. However the indoors downstairs did have ac and a few seats. Only were seats around the bar upstairs. The ride took 3hrs, on a beautiful day it's an epic trip. It was hot but no rain to ruin it so it worked out perfectly. They had a dj onboard, don't know if he is part of the yacht crew or if he was hired by our social group. In any case he was awesome.

The historic setting feels thoughtfully preserved and makes for a lovely evening out. Our drinks were great and very pretty, which matched the ambiance perfectly. That said, I found the food to be just okay for the price. It did not quite match the elevated look and feel of the space and felt overpriced compared to other places I have been. I would still go back again to try other items, because there were aspects of the experience I enjoyed, but it is not somewhere I would recommend off the bat without some caveats.

As a Titanium Elite member, I expect better service and communication. Unfortunately, that was completely lacking--especially from the manager, Alex, who was dismissive and unprofessional.
