Went out with daughter and her partner + one tourist ,with Only the captain on board,NO crew ...All ok as we went out ,But nearing the bay before the carvings the lake become Very Very choppy ,the boat
lurched badly ,dipped and swayed ,Very frightening ,the captain stopped talking ,and still headed for carvings ,by which time it was Unpleasant to say the least as the boat lurched sideways and dipped downwards .most frightening experience we have been on ...The captain should have turned around and headed back ,instead he headed out to middle of lake ,with More tossing about ,Thankfully it become a little calmer ,yet there was no forthcoming apology ,and he then slowed right down so that he did his 2 hrs,no shown concern for those of us tossed and Banged about..Had we had to get the life jackets which where on top of the boat instead of inside the cabin it would have been disastrous...On getting back He said as we alighted hope you had a pleasant trip !!! ....When I said It was Rather rough he laughed and said that was nothing ! "yes will I suppose he wasn't the one being chucked about and hanging on for dear life in a open cabin area !!!! ..
We where Also Charged $35 each for the trip ,Yet the Add for said trip states $30 and when my daughter pointed this out the Woman told her No its actually supposed to be 40 ,but today's special "yeah right! .....Wont ever recommend these People to anyone again ,they have No apathy for their customers .....
