We bought a unique narrowboat, which has a Z drive rather than the normal, a few miles from here. A week later we were out of the water, and trying to find someone to sort the drive within the two weeks we had. The weekend before we were out, we were let down by our engineer, but one of the guys who works here, Dan, offered to help. After a few long days working till gone midnight, we had a new back end fabricated and the Z Drive attached. Dillon who runs the place has been very accommodating, dealing with our lack of knowledge on the subject having only had the boat for a day before breaking down, and helping out where ever he could. If we did not have commitment down south, we would be on the waiting list for a mooring here, as they are fully booked. Would definitely recommend anyone who is looking for a mooring in the area to check out here. Thank you to everyone, we will be coming back to visit. I have attached a photo of our new fabricated back end with the new Z Drive attached.

Had a full overhall last last August. Top painted, hull blacked, engine serviced and a lot more. Great quality and service from Dillon and his team.

Friendly, small Chandlers and boat building\altering yard. Pump out cheaper than around about, gas and water. Shuts at 4.30 but 3.30 in winter months, but may stay open a little later if you phone ahead. May need to double park and not open Sundays or Sat afternoons, hence not 5 star. We are having a new window put in soon and may write more after. So far very satisfied with the service.

Great little yard with an honest and transparent attitude. Really helpful. My scheduled job was interrupted when the main man was rushed into hospital, but thanks to the help of Aubrey who stood in there were no issues or problems that couldn't be sorted. Special thanks to Aubrey who does a great sideline in organic chicken eggs. I would highly recommend the yard and the eggs.
