Very interesting - Despite the weather, we enjoyed a great experience that allowed us to get to know Seattle from another perspective. Seeing everything from the water and being very close to freighter ships is very worth it. The staff is very friendly and will make an unforgettable experience. Food on the boat is very expensive
