The boat was comfortable and in excellent condition. My only complaint is the lack of life jackets, which could have been disastrous in the event of an accident.

The speedboat was a bit older than the previous one booked and we departed a little late, but nothing significant. Some confusion at the pier on what to do for both myself and other customers but in end they told us where to go. The overall experience was however positive
