Specialty Fireworks Cruises

Has anyone watched the MK fireworks from the pontoon boat?
If so can you please describe the boat?
Thank you

It's a standard pontoon boat that seats @10. There's cushioned, padded seating in the bow of the boat and in the stern - here's an oldie-but-goodie picture of some PassPorters enjoying an Illuminations meet but it's the same type of boat for the MK fireworks. I only have a picture of the back 'cause I was sitting in the front!



This picture from Mouseplanet shows the entire boat -

Lifejackets (and blankets if it's chilly) are provided. It can get rather cool on the water, especially if there's a breeze blowing.

I think they all include drinks and bagged snacks for 10, so be prepared to carry the left-overs if you want them!

We've done the MK and the Illuminations cruise. We didn't get any food (they did offer food packages for extra money.) The cruises are kinda hard to reserve. When we were able to reserve(can't remember if it was 90 or 120days out) I started trying to get thru 5 minutes prior to the lines opening and was able to get the res. Its alot of fun. I think I liked the Illumination cruise best b/c we were able to be closer to the action. MK cruise was further out. We did a cruise for each of our boys B-day. Good Luck.

I wish I had a picture of our cruise on my work computer to post (not that I know how) because my favorite Passporter Wendy had our boat all decorated for my dd's bday. They did a great job and my dd was very surprised when we arrived at the marina and saw the boat all decorated.
