The boat needs to be cleaned and painted. Mirrored walls on first level looks tacky and dated. The prerecorded narrative was not as good as the limited live comments from the Captain. Time to improve the whole experience if you want to attract paying customers.

My Dad and I really enjoyed this boat tour. We got on across from Beacon in Newburgh and went South to West Point. The views of Bannerman Island & Castle were really good. The narration was also really interesting and surprisingly easy to hear and understand both inside the cabin and on the outside decks, and when we had extra questions, there was always a crew member roaming around to give us additional information.

the staff was very friendly & knowledgeable. The boat itself is a little "tired" meaning it could use a paint job on the upper deck to spruce it up. Overall worth the cost & would recommend to others
