I have a friend with a hiab so I'll give him a message. I dont even know why I didn't think of that. My head is all over the place haha Thanks again everyone for all your info and suggestions. First forum I've ever joined and to be honest I didn't expect to get a reply haha. Cheers guys/girls ?

I didn't even think about a low loader in all honesty. Don't suppose you know any companies? To be honest i didn't even know about it. I'm guessing they have a slipway and/or a place to lift in and out

Ahhh ok cheers for all the info guys. I done a head first dive into the deep end ? Ill give them a call and see what the best way going about it is.

I live in Birkenhead so the port is the closest place i can moor it. I have already rang up and had a good conversation about mooring. I explained the boat as much as i could and told them it is a project and they seemed fine and they were very helpful aswell. The nearest slipway to Ellesmere port is Tattenhall marina so i need to give them a ring on monday to talk about getting it in the water and towing it with a friends boat or going to try and rob his outboard untill its moored. That was the first thing i looked at. At the moment it has no gas/electric at all so im going to apply for it being exempt until i install then get a retest Thanks for the warm welcome everyone

Thank you for the information Much appreciated.

Yes you can moor but its at the bottom below the museum as mentioned above I've already talked to them about keeping it there

That is exactly what i needed Very big thank you I have been looking at bigger engine i just thought 5hp would be ok. Ill have a look at that now. Thank you

I've been looking at engines for the past 2-3 hours. A little 5hp outboard sounds perfect and they are readily available. I've already talked to Ellesmere port marina and they have given me prices and info about it all. And thank you for the welcome

Hello everyone. So I kind of done a thing and bought something I know nothing about ? I'm buying a 22foot 1975 Norman Viking cabin cruiser (I think it's a cabin cruiser) I've done as much research as I can and I know about the licensing and BSS and insurance. The boat will be moored at Ellesmere port. Basically I'm 29 I've done an impulse buy ? but I've opened a whole new world for myself and the kids Does anyone know the nearest slipway to Ellesmere port marina on the Shropshire Union canal as I can't seem to find any information. Thank you PS: Can't wait to start working on her ?
