DRYDOCK SPACES AVAILABLE — NOVEMBER & DECEMBER

Due to the continued closure of Anderton Boat Lift and Marsh Lock, several customers booked with us in November and December are now unable to reach us, leaving spaces available at Northwich Drydock.

Is your narrowboat or barge already on the River Weaver and in need of docking, maintenance or repairs?

Get in touch now to discuss the work you need and book a space.

It's that time of the week again - Azalea and Doris have been refloated following their week on the drydock.

Now it's time for work to begin on Whincroft and Dawn Piper.

Like last week, these two boats have come to us via the Manchester Ship Canal (and a few days prior, across the Mersey!).

🚣‍♂️If you are looking to book on the drydock, or in the paint dock, we are more than happy to help you with guidance on booking your MSC passage.

Dm, call 07393 978 654 or email [email protected] for more info 🌞

Work is progressing well with this week’s dockings.

Both Azalea and Doris have now been fully washed down and have received two coats of epoxy on the sides and baseplates.

It always surprises us when people say baseplates don’t need painting because “it’ll just scrape off.” These two boats prove otherwise — both had immaculate baseplates despite plenty of cruising since their last dockings.

We’re pleased to welcome narrowboats Doris and Azalea, fresh in after a pleasant journey from the Shropshire Union Canal via the Manchester Ship Canal!

Both boats are now in for a week for a full dry dock treatment, including:

✨ High-standard pressure wash
🛠️ Professional re-epoxying to sides & baseplates

If your boat is due some care and protection, now’s the perfect time to book 👇

📅 Dry docking slots available from the end of May onwards

With the ongoing closure of the Anderton Lift, we’re also happy to support customers with planning, booking, and contributing towards Manchester Ship Canal costs — making the process as smooth as possible.

📩 Get in touch today to secure your slot and keep your boat in top condition!
