Good service and entertainment. Very informative historical narration. The speaker system needs to be improved as there’s too much background noise and the historical accounts cannot be heard well. Dinner was good but should find a way if keeping main dish warm.

I expected quiet sailing with light entertainment. Instead the guide was quite loud for the entire duration. Honestly we could have done without this and just enjoyed sailing into sunset.
The captain and his crew were excellent.

Dinner cruise was fine, but not overwhelmingly great. Cool to see the coast line from that perspective, and music and storytelling was nice. Food was fine though nothing exceptional. Dinner was awkwardly severed (served in chunks while you sail out to the bay; would have been more pleasant to sail and then eat dinner stationary in the bay). You are not in the actual bay for long. Crew was nice. If you really like cruises, you may enjoy it. In the grand scheme of all the other things we did while on the Big Island, this was the event that fell flattest. (ps - if you get sea sick, be prepared for choppy waters and a real tough ride)
