In Cairo, on a branch of the River Nile, is the Gozira Sporting Club Houseboat which is maintained by the club as a leave boat, where men of the three fighting services are welcomed.

The Companys resident representative on board - Mohammed Naguib Salek, known affectionately to thousands of forces men as " Nicky" welcomes everyone personally. Over " 9000 men have spent their leave on this boat during the last three years and most of them write home saying. " This is the best leave anyone ever had".
