We chose this company as it is only one which runs later in the day. We weren’t sure, as we read some bad reviews. However, the other competitor’s company which runs8.20am had even worse reviews. Anyway, we were glad we chose this company. Great boat with very professional staff. Very new and clean! The seats were extremely comfy, better than in plane. Service was great. We watched some movies and luckily we had smooth ride! So, we saved a bundle of money and had more comfy trip than flying! We would highly recommend this company!
