Thank you so much for your honest and helpful review! We're delighted to hear you enjoyed the cruising experience and found our staff friendly, informative, and easy to deal with. It’s great to know the marina was easy to find and that you’d recommend us to others.
We appreciate your feedback regarding the boat’s handling and fuel usage.

We're glad this didn’t stop you from having a good trip overall, and we’d love to welcome you back again soon.
Many thanks from all of us at ABC Boat Hire!
