Bristol Packet
read moreThe Bristol Packet Boat Trips Co. was established in 1974 to take passengers on trips around Bristol's Floating Harbour and onto the Avon, with an old narrowboat and a passenger boat built on the Tyne in 1920. Both boats had been abandoned and lay derelict and unwanted for years. After a great deal of repair, and all kinds of restoration the Board of Trade surveyors passed the boats as sea worthy, and granted passenger certificates, we could then legally carry fare paying passengers. Bristol has had a long history of pleasure boating.
