Marigold Belle is a working paddlewheeler with a grand saloon downstairs, an open stage upstairs and a calliope that can be heard in the next parish. She does sunset sails, dinner cruises and private charters from the New Orleans riverfront.

Short sailings, big personality. If your event is a few hours and a lot of music, this is the boat.
