Is the “Silver Salmon” your only vessel? – Yes she is, at least at the moment. However, with totally flexible seating and table layouts she is ideal for any occasion, from short day trips to all day charters, from parties to corporate functions, from weddings to wakes, with our own on board catering for buffets to formal lunches or dinners. |
|
|
Can we bring our own food and drink on board? – No, we can provide a wide range of catering at sensible prices. |
|
| |
Can we get off at the (Weston) lock? – Not normally, because our duty of care for our passengers emphasises that experienced crew only must disembark and safely operate the lock gates. |
|
|
Is your vessel easily accessible for elderly persons? – Yes, we are just a few yards from the road, no steps but a gentle slope down to our moorings. We are just 2 minutes walk from the Riverside coach park or coaches/buses can pull up on the road close by to offload/load their passengers. |
