Food and crew amazing; bikes and schedule could be improved

The food and staff were amazing on this boat. It felt like a vacation family. Be prepared for tiny rooms with little storage space. One suggestion I would make is to improve the bikes offered, even if it adds to the cost. They were clunky about-town bikes, with some of the gears not functional. The first mate doubled as a sometime bike mechanic, but there should be better bikes and bike support. The plus was that the food was out of this world, packed lunches were provided, and drinks were varied and reasonably priced on board. I also think the bike rides should have faster options and allow people back on board earlier so they can go into town. Often it felt like we were purposely slowed down to avoid getting back to the boat before 4 pm. I would have liked faster rides and more choice time later.
