I wish you well with your business, in both longevity and financial success!  Sincerely, Belinda Cox . October 2005.

Just a short note to thank you and the crew of the Nepean Belle for the best night that we had for our wedding, the service and the meal was perfect we would have no hesitation in recommending you to other parties that are wanting something different and professional.

Yesterday, 4th May, we went on a cruise on the Penrith Platypus for my mothers 70th Birthday.

Thank you for making it perfect. Your staff were courteous, helpful and genuine in their enthusiasm to please. They made my mum feel so special. The atmosphere on the boat was wonderful.

The history was fascinating and appreciated, and being from a country community with our dams still very empty it was wonderful to see such a majestic river.

A very special thanks would have to go to Bas who impressed us initially with his thoughtfulness to elderly people but who also has made a friend of my 7 year old. My son has a pamphlet on Nepean Belle to take to school for news signed by Bas to "Captain Kid". 

We have already started to tell everyone about what a wonderful experience it was and we hope to do  a cruise with you again in the not too distant future.

Thank You once again. With much appreciation. Janelle  

Lucy and John from Campbelltown wrote in May, 2000:
Dear Helen and John, We could not have wished for a more perfect day for our daughter's wedding. After all the nerves of the lead-up to the wedding and the rain all day Saturday and especially the rain that night, it was such a relief when Sunday dawned fine and sunny. The banks of the Nepean River were such a pretty setting for the ceremony; everything looked so green and fresh, and the Nepean Belle set everything off wonderfully.

Many of the guests commented on the pleasant atmosphere on the Nepean Belle. With the changing scenery a common comment was "This certainly beats sitting in a stuffy Reception Hall". Thank you for all the lovely little personal touches you provided, though unexpected they were much appreciated... The service by your staff was excellent and our guests were delighted at the fine assortment and quality of the food.

It was all just perfect and we cannot remember ever being at such a lovely though simple wedding. Thank you some much for all you hard work to make such a lovely day for Janette and Richard and all of us.
Your faithfully,  Lucy and John McWilliam
