Fringilla
We run a fleet of five luxury river cruisers based in various locations on the Thames. We work with many of the excellent riverside restaurants and hotels. Many of our customers choose to bring a picnic and enjoy the beautiful scenery. A stunning vessel, Dragonfly is perfect for adding something extra to a meal at The Waterside Inn or a stay at Monkey Island or Cliveden House.

Sula is based at Oakley Court Hotel, Windsor and offers plenty of space for groups of up to 12. As well as offering our fleet of luxury vessels we are also able to offer Safety Boat & Filming Services. A local family business established for over 30 years, we offer a selection of five beautiful boats for charter on the River Thames.

Kingfisher is a very attractive Dutch river cruiser based at The Compleat Angler Hotel, Marlow. She was built in 2010 by Aquanaut Yachts in Sneek, Holland. Kingfisher combines the benefits of a modern, well equipped, heated cruiser with the elegance of a teak panelled saloon and a rear cockpit which can be covered or open depending on the weather.
Dragonfly is probably the most beautiful charter boat on the Thames, built in 2010 by Creative Marine in Norfolk. The forward cockpit has solid mahogany bench style seating for up to 8 people while the cabin interior has an oak framed ceiling and a further two bench seats. Towards the stern the galley offers a fridge, sink and cooker/heater as well as a separate flushing W.C. complete with vanity unit and mirror.
Larus is a traditional Dutch Super Kaagkruiser built in 1967. She benefits from a very large rear cockpit beautifully finished in teak and mahogany, capable of comfortably seating 8 or 9 people. The large cover over this area can be removed in the sunshine or left in place in inclement weather. There is also a smaller saloon area containing a small table and seating for 6 or 7 people.
Sula is a modern Dutch river cruiser built in 1992. She has the benefit of all mod cons including central heating, a comfortable onboard toilet and galley with hot and cold water. She has an open rear deck and large sliding roof to the saloon, this enables passengers to enjoy the benefits of global warming or shelter from the occasional shower.

Hired out one of the boats on Friday evening from Maidenhead, with both Will and Steve as our Skippers. We had the best time, both Will and Steve were lovely and we felt in very safe hands. We were able to self cater which meant we could accommodate our food intolerances. A large cool box was provided to keep all our bottles chilled. The 3 hours flew by, but we had great fun and would definitely do it again. Thanks to Will and Steve ❤

Thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hr family boat trip, on the Sula, this afternoon to celebrate a 70th birthday. Tom, our Skipper was great and made the whole trip very enjoyable. The boat is very roomy and we were able to spread out and sit both inside and out. We brought a picnic lunch and there is ample space to lay out the buffet. Can’t wait to do it all again! Thank you

Had a wonderful family boat trip last Sunday - the children were delighted and the adults were really impressed too! We were on the Kingfisher and our skipper, Will, was charming and really knowledgeable about all the sights and stunning properties along the river. What a great way to see the lovely area we are privileged to live in. Thank you so much. The McGuire family.
