Questions
Can I visit your marina spontaneously?
While spontaneous visits are welcome, we recommend booking appointments to ensure dedicated assistance, especially on weekends when we're busiest.
What are annual boat maintenance costs?
Annual costs typically double your mooring fee, covering insurance, licensing, maintenance, repairs, and fuel for inland waterways use.
Do you have available moorings?
Our marina moorings are currently full, with priority given to new boat purchasers through our brokerage service.
Can you sell my motorboat?
We specialise in selling well-maintained motorboats priced between £10,000 and £500,000 with transparent pricing guidance and professional marketing support.
Do you accommodate narrowboats?
Unfortunately, our facilities can't accommodate narrowboats as our moorings and lifting equipment are designed for motorboats up to 42ft.
Do you offer boat insurance?
While we don't provide insurance directly, we recommend trusted providers and facilitate quotes through our industry partnerships.
