The Moorings Crewed 4800 max's out at six (6) passengers. When you want to make the jump past 6 passengers with a fully crewed experience the price and effort jumps way up. Cooking and caring for 8 adults three meals a day 24/7 is a lot of work for 9 days. Before you get to I brought my own food times two (2) including 5lbs of bacon for someone to fry up.
