David

That’s “Tom”, Cruise Director to those who are familiar with the Rhythmboat! David is a born entertainer and he can even add his unique touch of light-hearted humour to the safety briefing on board!

Being the MC or DJ is one of his favourite things to do at work. He is a firm supporter of performers and many local gigs have found a place to perform on board the Rhythmboat.

A true-blue Elvis fan, David is no stranger to the world of entertainment. He has kicked soccer balls with Rod Stewart, taken members of Bad Company waterskiing and shared a meal with Suzi Quatro.

David is also a strong supporter of the Wayside Chapel and he never passes up an opportunity to provide a venue for charity and fundraising events on the Rhythmboat. 

Come on board the Rhythmboat and experience for yourself why David is the light of the party and you’ll wish the cruise never ends!
