About our boats
We have a fleet of 22ft / 7m fibreglass day boats, each with an internal diesel engine giving an average speed of 8mph and wheel steering for easy handling. With a width of 8ft / 2.5m, these boats are very stable. The high sides give good protection for children inside the boat, and they are half covered for shelter.
Our boats are cruising vessels (not specifically fishing boats) but are popular and well suited for fishing. You may catch mackerel, wrasse, pollock, or even cod, depending on the season. We have a selection of rods for hire that are perfect for children and novices.
