    Ticket for SEA QUEST the Glass Bottomed Boat. On my visit to Scilly at the end of July beginning of August I took several trips on SEA QUEST the Glass Bottomed Boat operated by Alf Hicks. It was a great experience as the vessel was certified for 12 passengers which meant avoiding the summer crowds packing out the Boatmen's Association Launches and the off-island boats! Certainly gave a new perspective on Scilly.
