Day Boat Hire
Fun seekers travel from all over the world to hire our self-drive Dayboats "Wyvern" and "Cheers". Day boating is a fun way to visit the K & A's canal-side pubs, or just have a family picnic aboard and watch the wildlife and countryside go by. Self-Drive dayboat costs are as little as £13.00 per head for the whole day!
Our boats are all steel canal boats and they are permitted through locks. Limit of day hire navigation is Dundas Aqueduct (8 miles west) and Seend (5 miles east). Seend is 3 hours cruising away so don't plan to use the Barge Inn for meals - you won't have time - anyway it is much more fun to take a picnic!
