Jolly pirate report

We had been true fans of Palm Pleasure for 6 trips in the past years, HOWEVER, we decided to do the Jolly Pirate yesterday, mainly for a change for the kids and the price. 17 of us did the boat trip from 3-6. We had a blast. The kids ( 3-18) all loved it. The staff was fabulous with all of us, they couldn't have been more fun and welcoming. They made great drinks for adults and green ( ewww) shirley temples for the kids. I think the youngest had 6 of them...anyway, we made 2 stops to snorkel and a 3rd to rope swing. My kids did the seperate jump and them my youngest went off the back of the captain. We have great pictures and some great memories. We also got to meet Carla and her husband prior to getting on the boat. We found out they came from our old stomping ground in Massachusetts, very nice and friendly.
Anyway, hats off to JP, we had a great time and will recommend this ship to all...Pictures will follow from home...CINDYO

Happy to hear that you enjoyed it as much as we do. I think there is a trend... Did the girls try the rope swing?
