is the motto of HENRIETTA III's Captain Carl Marshburn and crew as they strive to offer the finest in Southern hospitality. A favorite for locals and visitors, HENRIETTA III is "the place" for special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries, family reunions, weddings and receptions, as well as, school, church and club outings, corporate functions and just a lazy day or evening of fun.

The HENRIETTA III Cruises depart from Water & Dock Streets. All Cruises board thirty minutes prior to departure. Public Parking can be found at various specified locations around Historic Downtown Wilmington. Public cruises go out rain or shine, April through December, and Private Charters cruise year round.
