Choose accessible canal boat hire or a canal boat holiday from the Canal Boat Project and decide either to self steer or use the services of our qualified and experienced skippers at no extra charge.

Our canal boats not only provide disability access but also enable people with disabilities to take a full and active part in the boating experience.

We are a registered charity that hires purpose-built and adapted, wide-beam accessible canal boats for holidays and short-breaks to people with disabilities and difficulties and community groups.

We aim to provide the widest possible choice to our user groups and offer the possibilty to hire canal boats for a morning, an afternoon, the whole day, a short break or for canal boat holidays.

Or why not consider our specially refurbished holiday boats. They can each comfortabley sleep the largest families or groups (up to 12). You can hire our holiday boats from one day to two weeks. We offer a special overnight and day hire trip for those who wish to experience a canal boat break but are not yet sure a full holiday is right for them.
