What customers are saying about the Dancer range…

Dancer 2, Trustpilot

“Really easy boat to navigate and accommodation well thought out. We had a Dancer 2 for two of us, which gave us plenty of space.“

Dancer 3, Trustpilot

“This boat had enough room for us and was easy to use and navigate. We cooked our meals and had plenty of space to keep food and drinks cold. Showering worked great as did the top deck lounging. “
