Heroes Boat Party

A ship-shape crew of Manchester Confidential Heroes went on a free Friday night cruise of the Manchester Riviera a few weeks ago.

We tempted them aboard with the promise of delicious food from Taps, live music from singer-songwriter James Munro, and enough tipples from the Liquorists and Different World Drinks to fuel a voyage to the Caribbean and back.

Our boat, Dry Barge's good ship Bohemia, wasn't going quite that far but we had a fine time sailing the waterways of Manchester, Salford and Trafford. See our holiday snaps below.

(And if you'd like to get invited to free events and parties like this one, why not become a Hero? We organise exclusive, complimentary get-togethers for groups of Heroes every month or so – find out more here.)
