| With the growth of large multi-base hire
operations, this is now one of very few independent
family-owned hire boat businesses on the Canal du Midi.
The new manager and owner is Howard Davies who will assure
our customers of a warm welcome at Le Somail.
Their flagships are boats in the Sovereign class
wide beam, and barge style. These boats are the Narbonne, Le Somail, and
the Carcassonne. Seven steel boats are available. |

The hire fleet is based
in the picturesque Languedoc village of Le
Somail, about 10 miles from Narbonne, which lies on the 54 kilometre
"Grand Bief" (lock-free pound) of the Canal du Midi.
The company is small, and family-owned and operated, assuring
you of friendly, personal attention (from English speakers).The boats are
classic, durable all-steel English canal boats, ideally suited to the Canal
du Midi, and are beautifully maintained.
The hire prices are competitive, there are special offers
for late availability weeks. |
