We had the absolute pleasure of going on this boat. We were even blessed to go to the Wheelhouse and meet the owners granddaughter who was steering the boat. There were puppies to see, a plane that took off and landed beside us on the water and also there was the First Nation Village which was an experience and educational in itself. Would definitely do this again when I get back there
