Barmy Night

My fellow work mates considered this the highlight of the year. The crew very attentive, chatty, friendly and knowledgeable about the Waitemata Harbour. The food was a bonus.

Lovely despite some rain

Lovely despite some rain in the middle of our excursion. Able to sail out and in. Niall the captain Annabelle and Ashton the crew were also very friendly. Nice that Niall let us get a photo of us at the helm! The food was very tasty as well. Highly recommend
