Welcome to the Seth Ellis
Hi! I'm the narrowboat Seth Ellis. I live at Retford on the Chesterfield Canal and am owned by the Chesterfield Canal Trust. I'm operated by a team of volunteers and spend a lot of my time running private charters up and down the canal from Retford. This website is managed by the people that crew me and would look after you if you chartered me for a trip.
If you're interested in finding out more about Seth Ellis, local historian Christine Richardson has provided us with this interesting article.
If you are more interested in having a trip on board, we offer a range of private charters.We are also planning on running occasional open-access public trips on selected Saturdays throughout 2010 as our cruising schedule permits. More information is available on the private charter page.
Elsewhere on this site, you'll find latest news about trips and other events involving the Seth Ellis.
