Fleet & EQUIPMENT
The Cygnet fleet is a modern, well maintained one. We have a rolling ten year Boat Buying Programme in order to keep the fleet up-to-date and competitive. Our current fleet is detailed below including average crew weight and if can be rigged as a sculling boat. Damage to boats or equipment must be reported immediately to the captaincy so that it can be repaired and minimise the time that the boat cannot be used.
