&lt;p align="left" style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Each cruise has an entertaining or adventurous theme, fun activities and potluck. Time at the dock gives people the opportunity to share boating experiences, boat handling tips, maintenance knowledge and make new friends. We look forward to you joining us on Milltown cruises. We welcome sailors, power boaters, paddlers, and even those who prefer to come by car. Bring the whole family, children and pets are welcome.&lt;/p&gt;
