⚓ Time to moor up! 🚤🌿

One of the best things about a canal boat holiday is having the freedom to decide where you want to stop and explore. Found the perfect waterside spot? It’s time to moor up!

But what exactly will you need? 👇

🔨 Mallet & mooring pins - Your essentials for securing the boat safely alongside the towpath.

📍 Nappy pins - For attaching your ropes securely to the Armco barrier at the canal side.

⚙️ Windlass - Used to operate the locks as you make your way along the waterways.

And don't worry if you're wondering how it all works! As part of your Black Prince induction, our team will talk you through the equipment on board and show you what you need to know before you set off 💙

Where will you choose to moor up for the night? 🌅

📍 Hire Base Spotlight: Chirk, North Wales 🚤

If spectacular scenery is at the top of your holiday wish list, our Chirk hire base is the perfect place to cast off.

Located on the breathtaking Llangollen Canal, and just a stone's throw from the magnificent National Trust's Chirk Castle, this base offers some of the most iconic cruising on the UK waterways.

For a relaxing short break, enjoy a largely lock-free cruise through the stunning Dee Valley, making it an ideal choice for first-time boaters and anyone looking for a leisurely escape.

The highlight? Crossing the world-famous Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that carries your narrowboat high above the River Dee. It's an unforgettable experience...as long as you have a head for heights! 🌉

Have you experienced the thrill of cruising across the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct? We'd love to hear about your Chirk adventures in the comments! 💙
