Georgetown Waterfront
Guests consistently rave about the fantastic vibe and friendly crew that make these DC cruises so memorable. The boats are well-maintained with solid sound systems, and the staff clearly know how to create a fun atmosphere for adults looking to celebrate birthdays or just enjoy scenic views of the city at night. Marr gets multiple shout-outs for being welcoming and attentive, which speaks to the personal touch you'll experience onboard. The overwhelming sentiment is that people can't wait to come back. From sunset views to the party atmosphere, it delivers exactly what you'd want from a 21+ cruise experience. One reviewer did mention a bartender being unusually rude during their visit, though this seems to be an isolated incident rather than the norm. Most guests highlight how attentive and friendly the entire staff is, making it a solid choice for anyone wanting a fun evening on the water in Georgetown.
Highly recommend Boomerang cruises, I’ve been doing this for years in Georgetown. The crew is very friendly and helpful. The boat is always clean, speaker system is solid. They’re also pretty attentive to guest safety. The bartender, however, was extremely rude to multiple guests. Even threw a guest’s drink out the window. I definitely recommend Boomerang Boat cruises, but maybe review how to be polite to guests. Marr is a good dude , though.
