Fireworks "Cruise" Options

[Kimosabe]

Other than the Grand One (not in the budget!), what are my options for seeing Wishes from a private boat? Are most of these options just renting and driving a pontoon boat from one of the MK resorts (I'm envisioning 8 to 12 people in our party), or are there others that come with a driver? In a perfect world, it would also be nice to be able to hear the music on the boat. Thanks -

I don't believe they rent the boats out for you to drive yourself after dark. There are private pontoon cruises, driver furnished, from all the MK and Epcot resorts with marinas, and they all pipe in the music. I believe the max capacity is 7-8. I highly recommend the Wishes cruise--hands down my favorite thing we've ever done at Disney
