The day has finally come to our 2016 Boat Party. This is me and my boyfriend Ryan's 4th year to organize a junk trip. It has always been a pleasure to organize and gather people around in one boat for a one whole day of adventure.

Our boat has arrived
Waiting for the rest of the guest to arrive before boarding
This year, we rented a Cruiser boat with a waterside, a sea flyer float and 1 speed boat (banana boat and wake-boarding). The cruiser includes 2 toilets, 1 bedroom, bar area, karaoke and music system, sun deck area and an indoor air-conditioned lounge area. We rented the boat from "Hoi Fai Boating". The boat looks pretty luxurious and the boat staff were very helpful.

We had 48 people on board and we boarded the boat by 10:30am. We reached Clear Water Bay around 11:30am. Our first choice was to go to Tai Long Wan, Sai Kung but unfortunately it was too far to get there. Clear Water Bay is actually pretty nice too and the scenery is worth the ride.

For the booze we prepared a wide range of beverage choices. For beers, we had Corona, Peroni, Endeavour and Strongbow Ciders. For spirits, we had Finlandia Vodka, Jim Beams Whiskey, Patron Tequila XO Cafe & Dark Cocoa, White Rum and Bombay Gin. Ryan prepared Apperol Spritz for everyone as a welcome drink on board. On the other hand, I have prepared 200 pieces of Jello Shots with 4 different flavors and each have a name in it. The flavors are Strawberry (StrawBello), Lime (Wildfire), Blackcurrant (Rock & Roll) and Pineapple (Tiki Tiki). We also had Champagne, White and Red Wines, Sodas, Juices and of course Water.

As mentioned earlier, it has always been a pleasure for us both to organize a boat trip every year. We feel very happy whenever we see how happy and drunk the people are. It was an another successful boat trip. We can't wait to organize 2017 boat trip!
Yours Sincerely,
Michelle Chan
