Hearing the stories from the captain. And our visit to Williamstown. The boat was very comfortable. We were shocked to be told at the wharf we had only booked one way, I now look at our booking and this is incorrect.

Lovely return trip on a beautiful day. Excellent informative commentary. Ferry was looking a bit tired but comfortable and we were happy with our trip.

It was a nice trip going down the Yarra River to Williamstown. Unfortunately we couldn’t understand the commentary very well. Either the speakers weren’t very good or the skipper was speaking very quickly. We enjoyed Williamstown very much.
