As we get ready for the 2025 season we've been carrying out refresher safety training for the skippers and crew. We've tested the onboard safety equipment, practiced our rope tying, and rescued a few "man overboard" casualties (don't worry, no-one got too wet).

All ready for a safe & busy season on the River Dee! 🪢🚢
