She was thrilled to sit in the Captains sit and learn more about the boat. The Painkiller drinks were AMAZING! I had three haha. Shawn’s Caesar salad was to die for! Our snacks were great, the lunch was awesome and the views and locations were top tier! If you’re looking to snorkel, this is the crew to go…”
