Can anyone give me some information about The Breathless?

[Spoisal]

Can someone tell me about the Breathless? I am thinking of surprising my DH with this for our Anniversay in May. How much does it cost to book the Breathless for illuminations? What time would you book the boat for if you were renting it to view illuminations? What is included in the price? And, by the way, what IS the price? Anyone out there actually do this and think it wasn't worth it? Thanks for all of your help!

We've only done the Illuminations cruise on the pontoon boats, but did park next to the Breathless. It is a very beautiful boat!

There is some information, including pictures, on the Breathless over on WDWIG. Here's the link:

We didn't get the Breathless for an Illuminations cruise, but I did rent it for 1/2 hour for DH and I. It is such a beautiful boat! DH loves ChrisCraft style boats, and its was such fun to be zooming around the lakes!!

Breathless is the motor boat named after the Dick Tracy character. It is a 24 foot ChrisCraft reproduction of a 1930 runabout powered by MerCruiser 350 cubic inch engine reaching speeds of 50 mph! It has bench seats and can accommodate 6-7 persons. ( Note7 adults is pushing it. ) The boat is not covered.

Cost for Breathless for IllumiNations is $190+tax to rent the boat for the cruise and it includes a driver. (Not covered under any of WDW package plans.)
