TRIP OUT guides

The 'Trip Out' guide is the only complete directory of the passenger boat
services of the British Isles and is a vital source of information for anyone
involved in the business of running passenger vessels as well as those who
enjoy travelling on excursion vessels or ferries.
The lists show passenger boat operators area by area with their contact information,
details of vessels and a description of the services provided.
Maps show the location of each operator. Symbols indicate catering offered on board.
Nearly nine hundred vessels are listed, including car ferries, fast catamarans,
local pleasure boats, historic steam ships and horse-drawn canal boats.

The lists are now online and can be read HERE
