The ride was too fast and everyone threw up. He felt like the boat was driving too fast and it wasn’t on schedule at all. We arrived 45 minutes late.

I tried to get in contact because I had to reschedule my boat, but it was so hard. Both 12go Asia and the boat company where quit ignorant about my situation so now I paid trouble…
