Boat trips on the Kennet and Avon are returning, starting from Saturday, April 1.
Landlubbers who want their sea – well, canal – legs can join the voyages organised by the Reading Branch of the Kennet and Avon Canal Trust,
Crews will be taking people from Star Lane Wharf, behind Queen’s Road car park, on 45-minute trips at noon, 1pm, 2pm and 3pm on weekends and public holidays until October.
They will also be operating on Good Friday and Easter Monday – April 7 and 10.
Places cost £10, £6 for children and free for under threes.
If room, it’s possible to pay on boarding, but spaces can be booked in advance by logging on to: matilda.katrust.org.uk
