Check out this dreamy setup from last week…

We had a guest who wanted something a little extra special… so we sent them over to @michelles_table for a catering order. They worked with Michelle to craft a 3 course meal that would be easy for Captain Dale to serve on the boat. They had their starter on the deck, came inside for a white tablecloth dinner, and then headed back up to the front deck to enjoy a lovely dessert snuggled under a blanket. We added some extra decor to the boat, picked up the food for them, plated it and handled the cleanup as well.

We are happy to work with you to create the cruise experience that you want! There are a few vendors we work with and would be happy to connect you if there’s a little something extra you would like to add to your adventure.

Would you book a cruise with a 5-star catered meal served just for you and your group?

Who’s down for a movie night… on the boat?! 🤯⚓️🍿 Movie night cruises are only available Monday-Thursday nights in Sept. and Oct. Cost is total for all 6 guests. Food and drink is always welcome and encouraged.
