“The weather was extremely bad and the crew knew that beforehand. We were not allowed to cancel the tour despite the weather warning. As soon as we boarded the boat, we were quickly cast off and told that it was very windy and that we would not be able to sail to certain destinations on the tour. There we were, trapped on the boat for 8 hours in wind gusts of 57km/h and total swell. The tour was a disaster, a real rip-off! At least the DJ was good, playing the Titanic song to match the situation.”
