Taking in the sights and sounds of the creeks and hopefully Ron the seal may make an appearance. Once out onto the river Blackwater we turn on the music and hand out the drinks and make our way up the river pointing out all the local history and wildlife and on reaching the stopping point we hand out your fresh seafood platter and bread basket and let you just take in the ambience of being on the water. Once finished we head back to the creeks and harbour to say a fond farewell.
