Pilot from King's Lynn to Boston

[James Dunleavy]

We are a 57' narrowboat planning on doing the above towards the end of May '22 so we're interested in hearing from anyone wishing to join us. Comments/advice from anyone who's done this route or Wisbech-Boston will also be much appreciated.

I may have misunderstood your title & post, but it sounds like you're looking for someone to join you and act as a pilot? A boater who's done the trip before isn't a substitute for a professional pilot if that's what you were thinking.

 

Edit: I've just sent you a personal message with the email address of a pilot.

Thanks for clarifying what I meant - we are indeed looking for anyone to join us for this trip, under the guidance of an experienced pilot.

Being new to this forum, how do access your private message?

Look on the top bar of the page, left side. You'll see your username, +Create, a globe then two speech bubbles. Press on those to see messages sent to you.

 

Interested in this because it's a trip I'm planning to do next year.

Or if on your phone, click on the three bars top right, and then on the envelope icon.

I've done Denver to Boston once, and Boston to Wisbech twice. You may find this page helpful (note, I do get a bit carried away with the gadgets).  I can strongly recommend Daryl Hill as a pilot.
