I’m a qualified Boatman, former Merchant Navy Officer, and spent 7 years in the fire service. With a deep respect for safety and the water, I’m now working to launch small, guided boat tours on Lake Windermere—designed to be personal, story-rich, and unforgettable.
I’ll be running the tours myself, bringing maritime expertise and local knowledge to every trip. The goal is to offer something different from the crowded cruises—something calm, real, and rooted in experience.
The money raised will go toward buying a suitable vessel, completing safety certification and insurance, securing a mooring, and launching the business properly. I also want to offer a free ride to every backer who helps make this dream possible.
This is about more than a boat—it’s about creating a meaningful, lasting experience on one of the most beautiful lakes in the world.
