Leamington has a small enclosed cabin, open foredeck, toilet and sink.  However there are no cooking facilities and it is unheated.  All self-drive hires are from the canal basin.

The Leamington –  Information for Hirers guidance should be studied by the hirer and skipper before leaving since it describes possible options for your trip and obligations of the hirer.

One member of your party must be nominated as the skipper. Your designated skipper should download and read the Handover Form prior to arriving at the Basin for the hire. At the start of your booking, a LUCS volunteer will provide training which can take up to 30 minutes. At the conclusion of this training the Skipper will be required to sign the Handover Form prior to departing the quayside.

Leamington must return to Linlithgow promptly by the completion of the hire time and always before dusk.

Prices:

  • 8 hour hire (full day) – £250
  • 4 hour hire (1/2 day) – £150 (note that the 4 hour hire is not available at weekends)
  • Falkirk Wheel hire, a 10 hour trip – £350. Please refer to the Falkirk Wheel self-drive guide. Please note that you must contact the Falkirk Wheel on 01324 676912 to book your passage through the Wheel at least 24 hours beforehand.

Payment for your self-drive hire must be made online through our booking system.
