THE BOAT

A stable, well-equipped Polycraft

The craft is a stable polyurethane boat, carpeted and fitted with rod holders, a casting deck and a Bimini top, and is powered by a 40hp outboard — a practical platform for fishing and relaxed cruising.

THE OPERATOR

Jordans provides experienced support and safety kit

Jordans supplies the boat and staff support, maintains its fleet and provides all safety equipment, including life jackets and sunscreen, to make the hire straightforward and secure.

THE GEAR

Set up for fishing and simple comforts

The hire includes basic comforts — BBQ utensils — and life jackets; bait, ice, cold drinks, ice creams and fishing rods and tackle are available for purchase or rental on site.

What the day feels like

How the hire feels on the water

A 3- or 6-hour hire with Jordans places you on a roomy, carpeted Polycraft that feels solid underfoot; the casting deck and rod holders turn the boat into an efficient fishing platform while the Bimini offers sun protection. Staff maintain the crafts and supply safety gear so the hire is focused on time on the water rather than logistics.

Fishing groupsWell suited to small fishing parties: the boat has a casting deck and rod holders and fishing rods, bait and tackle can be rented on site, though a licensed driver is required.
3
Small groups & friendsDesigned for up to five people, the hire fits small groups seeking a relaxed half- or full-day outing on the water.
