Walton Jester at JGF Passenger Boats
About this space
The vessel is a passenger boat configured as a compact, self-contained floating event space. Its defining quality is mobility on the water during the hire.
Design: The cabin has a low ceiling, wraparound bench seating and a central dining layout dressed with linen-covered tables. Large rectangular windows run around the cabin and admit ample daylight, producing a bright, practical interior.
Features: An onboard bar and a PA system with speakers are available; hosts may play their own music or bring a DJ. Flexible table-and-chair layouts and a service table support plated meals or buffet setups, and a crew operate the vessel and manage service. A raised boarding step prevents roll-on wheelchair access, though crew assistance is offered for guests who need help boarding.
Ideal for: Small social groups and compact corporate teams seeking a relaxed, social tone for seated dinners or informal standing receptions.
What guests say: The vessel is immaculate and the cabin provides a calm, dignified atmosphere. The onboard crew are professional and attentive.
