Boat Hire Wales

 

The countryside in Wales is vast and varied. There exists a vast canal network through which it is possible to lazily float through miles of such countryside and because of this boat hire in Wales is becoming increasingly popular. Before I tried boat hire in Wales, I had in fact sworn off holidaying in the UK. The reason for this is that holidaying in this country always involves nervous glances at the sky as you wonder whether or not it is going to rain and your day out will be ruined. With boat hire in Wales however even if it rains you can still have an enjoyable day by just sitting inside your boat watching the rain bounce off the water and watching the world go by. It is in my opinion the best way to enjoy the country. The majority of people have no experience of this sort of holiday and therefore always seem to ask the same questions which I will now attempt to answer.

Are boats difficult to handle?

About fifty percent of clients of companies that specialise in boat hire in Wales have never handled a boat before. While sailboats and speed boats obviously have their challenges, other boats such as canal boats are very easy to drive. They move at a very slow pace and people can generally learn how to drive them within a very short period of time. The companies offering the boat hire obviously don't want you to crash the things so they are more than happy to spend as long as it takes for you to feel comfortable. They will also show you various safety procedures. You are likely to find that after the first few hours of your boat hire, you'll find it very easy and the next time you hire a boat, you probably won't even need instructions.

Do you need to be particularly strong?

This question is often asked because some boats do require you to be fit. Canal boats and narrow boats however do not really require this. Docking the boat requires a little bit of strength but any able bodied adult can easily handle it. Steering requires the same strength as driving a car.

How often can you get off the boat?

You can get off the boat pretty much whenever you want. If you are travelling along the canals and waterways of Wales there is usually places to tie up the boat every couple of minutes. You would also be surprised how many things there is to see and do when you choose boat hire in Wales. Because you are constantly on the move, there are always new pubs and restaurants to experience and various sights and tourist attractions. When you compare this to a traditional holiday rental when you spend your whole holiday in the same place you can see the massive advantage boat hire has over such rentals. Also if you are unlucky with the weather and therefore want to stay on the boat for awhile most companies hire out boats that are very comfortable and have more than enough space so that you are never likely to feel claustrophobic.
