There were 3 of us, all women, celebrating the 75th birthday of the “kid” among us. We were dazzled by the interior and found it most comfortable. Hated to leave. Will certainly return. ##### Marilyn D. Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dawn M.

We will definitely stay again, but longer next time. 😊. Thank you for sharing your yacht with us. ##### Dawn M. Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Brian K.

Unique and cozy, it was a fun adventure in a beautiful location. We did have some issues with the bunk beds getting wet from some sort of leak during a very heavy downpour that displaced one person to the couch for 1 night. Griffin provided new bedding and a dehumidifier to help dry things out and the mostly dry weather for remainder of the stay kept things comfortable. ##### Brian K.

It has a gorgeous location and walking distance to everything in downtown Gig Harbor. The yacht has been remodeled beautifully and is light and bright. The owners were excellent to work with and they had a bottle of wine waiting for our arrival. Do bring slippers or socks with a little bit of grip because there are two sets of stairs within the boat. One of the best moments was drinking our coffee on the day bed surrounded by beautiful views of the harbor. Thank you for sharing Lyla with us! ##### Teresa H.
