LNBP will provide the captain and boat crew. Shipmates have the chance to come dressed as your favourite Pirate (which is optional) and join in the fun for the day which will include pirate crafts, games, a treasure hunt and a trip on the canal. Buoyancy aids will be provided for everyone for use outside the boat.

Tea, coffee and squash will be provided but Pirates will need to bring a packed lunch.
