OUR NARROWBOAT TRANSPORT SERVICES
Transporting narrow boats requires specialist knowledge. It requires an in-depth understanding of the UK and European canal network and infrastructure, an understanding of narrow boats themselves, and a detailed understanding of how these beautiful boats need to be transported.
We have been safely transporting narrow boats across the UK and Europe for over 30 years and can confidently say we have all the specialist knowledge we need to ensure a safe and satisfactory outcome.
OUR PROCESS
Each narrow boat transport project starts with a detailed fact-finding process with our customer. This helps to ensure that all of the core components are in place before the state of the transport, including any paperwork that needs to be completed.
On the day of the transport, we will always begin with a detailed inspection of the narrow boat we are transporting. This ensures that we identify any potential issues before they arise and allows us to ensure we transport the boat in the safest, most secure way possible.
We will then carefully oversee the lifting of the vessel onto one of our state-of-the-art transport vehicles and make sure the vessel is completely secured before we commence the transport.
