πŸ‘πŸ‘ So, how many places in the world can you travel on a steam powered ship? Not many i would bet but you can in Perth. I am a long term resident of Perth and always assumed it was a conventionally powered ship dressed up to look like a paddle steamer. But PS Decoy is a piece of heritage still working... People often mention event, Great,

    So, how many places in the world can you travel on a steam powered ship? Not many i would bet but you can in Perth. I am a long term resident of Perth and always assumed it was a conventionally powered ship dressed up to look like a paddle steamer. But PS Decoy is a piece of heritage still working today. If you like all things machinery and history, then you must take a trip on this boat. Captain Soren and his crew handle the rather unwieldy old worlde boat with such precision and professionalism, its a treat to watch. Highly recommended for all ages.

    Great thing to do in Perth. Don't even worry if the music isn't even your scene, the views of Perth from the boat are stunning and the drinks are very reasonable.

    Sends email day before event.. no food service, bring your own... And expects you to just accept . Sorry but not good enough. Disappointing and completely unprofessional. No offer to reschedule, no offer to refund. More to come Avoid. Today, Monday 15 November this reply from these slimey grubs Thank you Lawrence for showing us our product description – very, very useful. Thankfully we are aware of the description, hence our notification about the kitchen being closed. It would have been incorrect if we did not inform patrons before arriving. It is unfortunate that we cannot predict the future and when one of our staff may become unwell. You take care now, Decoy Crew This evening on Facebook this, Lawrence Levett your email address is blocking emails from psdecoy.com.au despite it being a secure site. You need to fix that in the first instance. Additionally it appears as though you may have misinterpreted something, food is not included with the ticket, you have to purchase on-board. So there is no 'food Service' only the option (when the chef is well enough to work) to purchase food. There is, thankfully, a strict 'stay at home when unwell' policy that protects crew and staff. The reply Paddle Steamer Decoy not misinformed at all. And your emails have Saturday and today Monday been received and responded too (as is shown in the review). I purchased tickets, because there was food available (and yes I know for purchase). As per my first email, which I am more than happy to share. If I wanted a picnic we would go to kinGS Park or something similar. I also acknowledge that your cook being unwell . All I was requesting was a refund, as you failed to provide the service as described.

    Looked a nice boat .... not sure if it was a restaurant or cafe, or it actually 'sailed'. Nice to see it there though ...

    A very good spot and angle that you can view the whole city from another side of the river.
