What people say about us

  • DMW
    The Princess is tidy, safe and comfortable. The crew are very informative, funny and sensitive to folk not used to boats. This was our second trip and Capn Paul was just as entertaining and ironic as Capn Jack was last year. This was the last trip of the year and she is due to be lifted out for the winter tomorrow, so we were very lucky. No trip to Ilfracombe can be complete without including a trip in the Yellow Cat.
