449.0. "Party boat information" by ASD::DICKEY () Mon Aug 17 1987 10:52

    This note contains time/cost/location information on different
    Party boat outfits.

    This information is presented here so others don't have
    to make all the phone calls I just made.  I don't guarantee that
    the information is complete, but that was all the information that
    was volunteered by the person answering the phone.  This should
    not be taken as an endorsement, particulary since I haven't been
    out with all of them.
    
    I have given each outfit its own reply so in the future, the reply
    can be reentered if the information changes.  Anyone who has similar
    information on other outfits, please feel free to enter it.
