Previously the Ashley Gorman the Grand-Mére was acquired in 2020 by Royal American Hospitality (RAH).

RAH restored, redesigned and renamed the boat to honor the matriarch of the Chapman family, Jeannette Chapman.

The Grand-Mére is a 131-passenger boat complete with full bar and snacks available for purchase.

The Grand-Mére offers a Shell Island Cruise & Dolphin Watch and a Sunset Dolphin Cruise. Both cruises explore the St. Andrews Bay with narrated sightseeing from the Captain.
