Thank you for your honest feedback. We're really pleased to hear that you found the boat lovely and clean — and we’re very sorry to learn about the issues you experienced during your trip.
We appreciate you bringing the battery, gear stick, and bathroom sink concerns to our attention. These are certainly not the standards we aim to uphold, and we’ll be investigating them thoroughly to ensure they’re resolved and don’t affect future guests.
Your comments are incredibly helpful in allowing us to improve, and we’re grateful for your patience. We hope this didn’t take too much away from your overall experience, and we’d love the opportunity to welcome you back for a smoother and more enjoyable trip next time.
Many thanks,
