Always Delivers!! - I have been coming to Hervey Bay for 8 years now and never miss the opportunity to go out on Spirit. She and her crew are awesome and always come through. This year was spectacular and whales a plenty. I actually went out twice with Spirit and both times were great. Such a comfortable boat, being up so high is awesome when whales are nearby and it is so stable!! Definitely a must do!! I will always go on Spirit!
