Albion Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 Ian Clarke of Pennine Cruisers, Skipton, has a dry dock (haven’t seen it in operation but walked round it when prepping our boat for sale years ago) just on the outskirts of Skipton near the hospital. He would almost certainly know of a local surveyor. There is also, but slightly further away, Snaygill Boats, Snaygill, who also have a dry dock and, again, could probably recommend a local surveyor.

Nightwatch Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 Pennine Cruisers dry dock is not dry. It lifts the boat out and remains above the water. We have used the dock for blacking and the whole experience was first class. But maybe not for surveys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glynn Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 Contact Jonathon B Jackson Ltd, Ulverston, Cumbria for the survey. He came to us at Lower Park, Barnoldwick. He's a good surveyor. Lowerpark also arrange lifting in/out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, IIRC, the boat is supported on beams but I wasn’t sure whether they pumped out the remaining water from below or not as I never saw it fully in action.

PD1964 Posted January 2, 2020 Report Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) Can recommend Richard Fee, works all that area. Very thorough and professional. Also Fully qualified in Gas fitting so you know the gas system will get a professional check, which gives peace of mind.
