TESTIMONIALS

Over the years, The Wangi Queen has provided fun and excitement to all who have sailed on her as she cruised her way around Lake Macquarie. Below are just a few excerpts from thank-you letters that those happy passengers and party-goers have sent in:

Thank you for being involved and all your help with the Crew on Tour. The event was a phenomenal success, with many monies raised towards the Variety Children's Charity throughout the morning. The NX Crew would like to thank the Wangi Queen for being involved in this extremely successful promotion.

... written to you to express our deep appreciation for the wonderful day you provided. We chartered the boat for the main part of the day which was in honour of the 60th wedding anniversary of my wife and myself. We have suggested to a few other friends that they might like to also charter the boat for whatever function they might wish to hold.

Thank you very much for bringing the Wangi Queen and Santa to our bay this year. All the locals had a great time and we had a happy evening together to celebrate Christmas Eve, thanks to your efforts. We had young visitors from Sydney who were thrilled to see Santa arrive by ferry over the water!

My husband organised a surprise 50th celebration on board the Wangi Queen with some of our closest friends. I wanted to extend my sincere thanks for your part in organising such a wonderful day that everyone thoroughly enjoyed. The food was lovely and beautifully presented and the Wangi Queen is a charming boat. I particularly wanted to pay special note to the staff that worked during our lunchtime cruise. The day would not have been so wonderful without fantastic service.

Thank you so much for the great cruise that made our 40th celebrations memorable. Everyone had a great time, and those who live here enjoyed the cruise to the southern aspects - not that I saw too many people looking at the lake. Everything about the cruise was an absolute joy - the crew, the decorations, music and fantastic food. Thank you so much.

Thank you for the wonderful evening on your showboat when I celebrated my 60th birthday. The feedback from all my friends (50-odd) has been so positive. Thank you for making my 60th a fabulous event - the venue is so important and I am so glad I chose the Wangi Queen

Thank you and your courteous crew for our wonderful day at Lake Macquarie on the Wangi Queen Showboat three hour lunch cruise. Our members voted it as one of the best outings our club has ever had in its 25 year history. The luncheon was absolutely superb in its freshness and quality and its presentation also was quite professional and very attractive. As an old admirer of timber boats, I must compliment you on the refurbishment and decor of the Wangi Queen in to a gracious, charming and comfortable cruise boat.
- Graham Percival, Ryde Probus Club
