Hello!

I'm Peter, the skipper. The crew and I invite you to come canal cruising with us. Our aim is to ensure that you have a truly memorable trip. So sit back, relax and let us take the strain!
Because we sail smoothly along at 3 to 4 m.p.h. there's ample time to savour the tranquillity of the rural scene. There's canalside nature, 18th. Century canal engineering and breathtaking views.
Perhaps you wish to chat to your fellow passengers or the crew or simply watch the scenery drift slowly by. It's a relaxing trip compared to a coach or car rushing along busy main roads.
Why not join us?

SAFETY
New Horizons is under the command of a full-time qualified skipper to ensure the boat's availability and the safety of passengers. The skipper and crew are all trained for inland waterways navigation. The boat is licensed by The Canal and River Trust and complies with boat safety requirements and is inspected at regular intervals by a marine surveyor.
