I would have thought they could have organised a proper ferry. Shouldn't
be that difficult.


Agreed, I wonder why they haven't?


The tide probably. On the southern St Pauls side there are steps leading up to their
boathouse. While on the Hammrsmith side at low tide there are steps down
to foreshore used by rowing clubs. Howver all such steps can be slippery
depending on when the tide went down.
