On the 10th June 2026, a group of friends will attempt to set a new world record - complete a journey including every vehicle chain ferry in the UK, in an electric car, in under 24 hours!

There are seven vehicular chain ferries in the UK and the shortest route linking them is approximately 750 miles. The challenge is to cross them all within 24 hours. 

The journey commences in the Lake District on the last crossing of the Windermere Ferry, and the route ends the next day at the King Harry Ferry in Cornwall, travelling from Philleigh to Feock. 

The Magnificent Seven

• Windermere Ferry, across Lake Windermere in Cumbria

• Reedham Ferry, across the River Yare in Norfolk

• Isle of Wight Floating Bridge, at the mouth of the River Medina on the Isle of Wight

• Sandbanks Ferry, across the mouth of Poole Harbour in Dorset

• Dartmouth Higher Ferry, across the River Dart in Devon

• Torpoint Ferry, across the River Tamar, connecting Devon and Cornwall

• King Harry Ferry, across the River Fal in Cornwall

The Chain Ferry Challengers are celebrating and honouring a departed frind, Dan Demissie, whilst raising money in aid of CALM, the Campaign Against Living Miserably.
