Now operated by Francis and Jenny Spencer, who acquired the business seven years ago, the ferry operates daily from 1st March until 31st October, and on weekends during the winter, weather permitting. Whilst today the ferry uses a modern boat, built in 1997, Hammerton's original skiff is still on display in the Museum of Docklands.
A ticket costs £1 for adults, and 50p for children, and adult bikes are an extra 50p. For more information, see http://hammertonsferry.co.uk/
So after clicking through your link to the ferry the other day, I noticed that you can also rent canoes and row boats from Hammertons Ferry. With that in mind, 8 of us ventured out there last Sunday for a leisurely row/kayak so thank-you!
