First time on the water? No problem at all.

All of our hirers who are new to boating will receive a full hands-on introduction before setting off. Our experienced team will guide you through boat handling and lock operation, with two members of staff accompanying you through your first three locks to make sure you feel confident and in control.

We’ll take it step by step, answer any questions, and make sure you’re completely comfortable before you continue your journey. 🚤

Your holiday should be relaxing from the very start — and we’re here to make sure it is.

Don’t let your holiday end with an unexpected fuel bill. With us, fuel is fully included—no hidden extras, no surprises. Unlike some other boat hirers, what you see is what you pay—so you can relax and enjoy your time away with total peace of mind.
