Unexpectedly small open boat

Boris was a good driver and commenter, but the tour description did not show a picture of the boat or mention its attributes - very small and very open! It was a chilly day with a chance of rain. Knowing this we expected a boat with a cover for some protection in case of rain. This boat had none. Fortunately it did not rain during our 1 hour ride. On a sunny warm day, this might be ok. We did stop at 30 minutes to enjoy a glass of Prosecco, but there was no “local treat” for a snack as advertised. For $65 per person, we expected more than we got.
