Reviews
Comment: Bertie and Michelle were two of the nicest, most pleasant, helpful crew that we have had. The only recommendation that I would make would be to speed up the times that we were dining, it often was a little late. With more experience, this could be one of the top crews at TW.
Comment: First - the crew Michelle, Bertie were excellent. Lots of fun, food was great and they are wonderful hosts/people. The food was fresh and very tasty. The boat had an engine go - didn't affect the trip at all.
