Our Boat

Join us on the Squeak By for a relaxing self catered cruise on the historic Cheshire Ring waterway with Captain Mark Husband delivering on board training and support 

Kraken Cruises

Each trip includes a training session to familiarise our passengers with the elements of boat handling,  and on-board safety procedures

This is intended as a restful pleasure cruise, not intensive training. You are free to choose how much or how little you take part in the handling or day to day management of the narrow boat. Snoozing as you cruise is always an option!
