A little bit of history about our Big Yellow Boat...

Launched in 2004 by the Barbeary family, Paul Barbeary skippered the princess every season until his retirement in 2021. The Ilfracombe Princess was built specifically for coastal cruising along the North Devon coast. Over the years it's estimated she has carried over 320,000 passengers.

In 2019 a local family bought the Ilfracombe Princess, Mark Hutchings and Stuart Hutchings both have a passion for the water. Mark has over 13 years experience operating tourists boats at the harbour. Marks wife, Nancy, manages the day to day running of the company from the harbour. Along with the children making appearances throughout the summer at in the booking kiosk and on the vessel this really is a family run business at its best.

The company thrive to ensure the enjoyment of its passengers, “making memories” really is the moto for the company, and its good memories that will last a lifetime they hope to achieve.

Heading West out of the harbour we pass the famous Tunnels Beaches, Lee Village and on to Bull Point Lighthouse originally constructed in 1879.

There is an increasing number of Atlantic Grey Seals just past Rockham Beach – this is where we regularly have sightings. Our vessel has a fantastic viewing deck for these occasions.

Once we pass the seals, we move on to Morte Point which has many tales to be told of smugglers and shipwrecks. We then journey onto Woolacombe Bay – here we have fantastic views of Baggy Point, Hartland point and Lundy Island before returning to Ilfracombe.
