Help needed, Northampton Marina.

[David Cadden]

I need to move my 60 ft narrow boat from one mooring position to another within marina, but unfortunately I'm recovering from a big op, and can barely walk. I dont know anyone who has handled a boat so have no one too ask.

My partner can handle a boat on the straight and through locks but not at all confident in a Marina.

Should there be any chance of help I would be very grateful. 

Thanks 

David.

I'm quite sure that John the manager could assist, or find someone to assist you.

John's assisting but unable to drive/ manoeuvre customers boats.

I'd be happy to do it right away if you pay my petrol costs from Milton Keynes (John will vouch for my abilities)

Many thanks Keeping up, I'll call you soon.

Suggest you keep an eye on the weather.

Wind starting to pick up on Saturday to 'mid 20's mph'

 

60mpg gusts forecast for Sunday

Mid 40's mph on Monday

40mph on Tuesday

Mid 30's mph on Wednesday & Thursday.

 

I would not entertain moving a boat in those sort of winds
