| The
Pennine Moonraker is a well equipped 70' narrowboat purpose built as a trip
boat by Hancock and Lane Ltd of Daventry, England in 1984. The boat was
extensively refurbished in 1996 and now boasts a well stocked bar, comprehensive
galley and new toilet. The boat has a capacity of 50 passengers, a crew
of 3 and can cruise at a maximum speed of 4 m.p.h. |
| The
boat is skippered by John Lund, who has had a lifelong interest in canals.
He holds a Boatman's Licence issued by the Registrar General of Shipping
and Seamen in Cardiff (part of the Department of Transport). John has had
a lifelong love of canals and takes an active interest in the current restoration
of the Huddersfield Narrow Canal. The boat has been in his family's ownership
since 1991. |

The
well stocked bar includes Tetley's Smoothflow bitter and Carlsberg
Export lager, both on draught. There is also a good selection of spirits
and wines, as well as soft drinks. Tea and coffee are also available. |
| Fifty
passengers can be comfortably seated in the bright interior. The large
number of windows give everyone onboard excellent views during cruises. |
 |
 |
As
well as the bar and comfortable seating area, the onboard facilities
include a sound system and small, new toilet. |
| The
recently refurbished galley is where all snacks and meals are prepared.
It is well equipped and allows a large variety of food to be made
available. |

Wherever
you are seated on the Pennine Moonraker you have easy access to all
the facilities. |
