Ahoy there, future skippers! Ready to set sail on your GoBoat adventure? Whether you're cruising the Regent's Canal, exploring the Thames, or navigating the waters of Canary Wharf, a well-packed bag can make all the difference.
To help you prepare for your nautical journey, we've put together this handy checklist of items to bring along. So, grab your tote bag or rucksack, and let's get packing!
If you're sailing from Canary Wharf, take advantage of our Butler Boat service for drinks and snacks delivered right to your boat!
For spring or autumn trips, a thermos of hot drinks can be a real treat.
If you're celebrating a birthday or special occasion, don't forget those decorations to make your boat festive.
Remember, your GoBoat adventure is what you make it. Whether you're planning a romantic proposal (yes, we've had quite a few of those!), a family day out, a birthday, or a catch-up with friends, these essentials will help ensure your trip is smooth sailing.
So, what are you waiting for? Book your GoBoat experience today, pack your bag like a pro, and get ready to make some waves and memories on London's beautiful waterways!
