Ferry Cross The Meadow
A great introduction to the boat, the lake, the river and all we do!
Set to music from 'The Onedin Line' the film encapsulates a little of everything that is available with Poshboatz. It leads in with dawn, introduces the boat on the lake and highlights some of the bird life. The big orchestral crescendo presents the centrepiece of the film - the high speed runs. As this subsides, we move on to beautiful river shots, before returning to the lake for the finale.

Photos
For an entertaining glimpse of scenes on the lake and river in and around Ferry Meadows, please have a look at our musical slideshow here.To see and share more photos, we recommend Flickr - we think it's the best photo hosting site on the web. It's easy to use and you can view every photo in full screen; you can find Poshboatz Photos here.
Another reason we use Flikr is because of the vast amount of public photos which you can view. For some of the best, check out the Galleries on our Flickr page. To see even more of the area, why not search the entire site for 'Ferry Meadows' and 'Nene Park' or 'Peterborough' too!
Having said that, there's also a nice collection from 'The Guv' (who produced our videos) here at Picasaweb.
Videos
We've also put together a selection of videos to show you all about Poshboatz, Ferry Meadows and the River Nene. You can find a full playlist and watch the videos on Youtube, but don't forget to turn on your speakers first! Or you can read more about each video below and just click on the picture of the one you want to see.All the films are made by Martin Vos at G. G. Productions, to whom we are extremely grateful. You can find more of his work and read about his filming for these videos here and in his subsequent blogs.
"He thought his happiness was complete when, as he meandered
aimlessly along, suddenly he stood by the edge of a full-fed river."

Meadow's Way - Birdlife at Ferry Meadows
Too much good footage to lose
Birds and wildfowl appear in all the other films but we still had some good shots left over. And since our feathered friends are such a part of life on the water we've pulled together all the best bits for no other reason than they are great to watch. Mute Swan, Great Crested Grebe, Coot, Moorhen, Mallard, Gulls, Geese, Ducks, Heron, Cormorant........ Enjoy!

Where Peaceful Waters Flow: Lake and River Charters
Boat and skipper for your private use on the lake or the river
Beautiful scenery, strong reflections, narrowboats and cabin cruisers, bridges, fishermen, golfers and other wildlife(!) - a private charter out onto the River Nene is a wonderful to spend a couple of hours. Sit back, relax and see what you are missing.

When The Boat Comes In
Public trips around Overton Lake
The pace of this film remains constant, mirroring the boat's calm, leisurely, relaxing pace throughout our regular 'turn up and go' trips. The soundtrack, Clair de Lune by Debussy, gently flows along with the feel of a lazy Sunday afternoon.
