Chichester Canal

Thursday 19th June 2025

On a glorious sunny day, 49 members and their guests boarded the coach to make the short journey to Chichester and to the Chichester and Portsmouth Canal for a 90 minute cruise.

We had hired both of the boats for this trip, with 32 members on the Richmond and 17 on the Kingfisher.

During the cruise we were served with a lovely cream tea with a hot or cold drink. It was a peaceful and incident free cruise and members took the opportunity to catch up with the colleagues they hadn't met for a while, or went onto the aft of the boat to chat with the boat's skipper, John, and ask any questions they had.

As usual with this type of trip, photos speak louder than words, so here are a selection taken by Dave Stedman, Val Figg  and myself.
