Skyway Bridge - The boat was in time, while boarding we got a very friendly greeting from capstan Dennis and his crew! Big selection of wine beer and seltzers. The crew came out on deck to check on us and offered to take pictures of us and with friends. They had a great playlist for music as we rode out to the bridge. The experience seeing the bridge from that perspective was amazing.

Really nice time. - It was a really nice trip. Cloudy but that's what happens. The crew was very nice. The only thing was not enough chairs. There were a few up top. But only benches. And I have a bad back so was not really comfortable. There should have been more chairs on the main part. There was plenty of room.
