This year (2007) my wife and I boarded Star Fleet's first public Halloween cruise and we highly recommend the experience. Tickets included an excellent upscale buffet, beer, wine, DJ entertainment, and a 3-hour cruise departing from Kemah. Costumes were not required but almost everyone arrived personally decorated. The crew was great and the entertainment captain kept the upper deck lively with dancing, games, and a costume contest. Star Fleet offered both a family cruise and our 6 to 9 pm adult cruise. Since this was Star Fleet's first public Halloween cruise, the yacht wasn't filled to capacity but I'm hoping that word gets out and next year will see even more of a party. Ages ranged from 20's to 50's, but predominantly a younger crowd. Two thumbs-up for Star Fleet Yachts.
Pros: Great Caribbean buffet, party atmosphere
Cons: Sunday night cruise vs Friday or Saturday
