75-YEAR-OLD SEEKS FIT, KEEN FRIENDS FOR OUTDOOR FUN Heritage 1938-built ex-LMS 70-foot boat Birdswood needs more crew volunteers so we can extend our Spring/Summer 2014 public, charter and schools cruising programme on the beautiful Cromford Canal in mid-Derbyshire. If you sign up for the Birdswood team, you'll get a heritage narrow boat experience and sometimes a horsey one, too! What's not to like about that? Our human crew members need to be 18+, averagely fit, and comfortable with giving our passengers a memorable trip experience as well as doing boat work. Minimum commitment is one day a month, plus training days as needed. Season extends through to December, mainly Wednesdays and weekends. No wages but very companionable crewmates (we're not called the FRIENDS of the Cromford Canal for nothing...) and the polo shirts and jackets look quite cool... Oh, and if you're really keen we might even talk you into training for a MCA Boat Master's licence!
Just message me if you want to know more :-)
