Geared for younger people who just want to drink. Eight American sized people are too tight in the main area. 2 of the 4 couples went to the front of the boat, so it worked out. But if it had been all older couples that would have been way too tight a fit. On another boat leaving at the same time was a couple with a smaller dog, and they allowed the dog. I didn't think that was okay. Not…”
