Discounts

We offer enticing discounts: multi week, loyalty, multi boat, mid-week breaks, under-occupancy, early booking for 2011. See which you can claim.

Fuel included

Many of our competitors charge extra for fuel, which can produce a hefty extra charge (£75 is typical) at the end of a holiday. We have stayed fuel inclusive, and our customers say they much prefer this.

Compulsory damage waiver

You must add £45 per boat to the hire fee, for non-returnable damage waiver.

Optional extras

Not everyone needs these, but some of you will: extra adults, extra pets, credit card charge, guides and maps for planning at home, taxi transfer for one way trips.

For details of extras and discounts see price pages.
