History

Lewis Alexander Flatholm Jetty

Bought by Cardiff Cruises in 2020, this boat was purpose built by Mustang Marine in 1989 to sail between Flatholm Island and Barry, where it was originally located.

Used by Cardiff Cruises since 2020, we have now changed our Flatholm vessel to a more efficient Landing Craft, Lansio 2. The Lewis Alexander is a beautiful and quaint boat that is now available to purchase.

We have enjoyed our time with her, but she is now ready to continue her sailing journey with a new owner. For more details please get in touch: info@cardiffcruises.co.uk
