Hi Rod,
All hire boats have to use the pilot service, Private boats don't but can pay should they rather the pilot take them through.
It's worth pointing out that the Martham boat stuck under the bridge was being piloted by the staff of the hire company and NOT hirers.
The boat had been stuck in Herbert Woods Boatyard for a few days due to the high river levels.
Marthams took the decision to take her under and back to their own yard.
Obviously it didn't quite work out as planned but I'm sure they will have it back in fleet hire very soon.
