No one in our family (3 of us)got any lunch at all. We didn't rush over right away and by the time we got to the tables, everything was gone. Maybe box lunches would be better??

We were in Hawaii in the last week in May and took the lunch cruse. The food was great and plentiful. The captain was wonderful and his crew was very friendly. They took pictures and even gave us 2 complimentary drink tickets. The sail was about 2 hours and the view was amazing. I would defiantly sail again.
