It’s a great time with a great captain and crew! We saw a beautiful and interesting fish. The boat was fun with a slide in a jumping off place! The lunch and snacks were excellent and the crew could not have been nicer. I had a little trouble with my mask and snorkel for the first time and one of the crew members was very gracious about helping me.
