It was excellent !!! There is so much to study and learn. The staff members, who were providing the information on board, performed really well, which shows their knowledge, interest and commitment. We (small group of engineers - Electrical and Civil, along with their spouses - overseas and Australian) had little knowledge of real life and technology of sailing at the past times in the maritime field, picked up information from various resources. We had a few questions to the staff based on our knowledge; the answers were just there on their fingertips. Our hats off for them, really appreciate their performance. I also appreciate the performance front office very friendly staff. I have booked the tickets and paid online (via Web). However, I came across a problem, but the staff member managed to sort it out in couple of minutes. I really appreciate that too. May I suggest that there is a little room (opportunity) to improve in this area. Overall, what a nice bunch of human beings, very much appreciated. I wish you all very best and success to continue the level of service and transfer the knowledge to the generations to come. Ananda.
Very good information and knowledge for the kids especially! Highly recommended to anybody!
