Hardstanding or paint dock needed

[EmMoon]

Hi All,

We desperately need a hard standing or paint dock ( DIY) as close to Napton as possible. Does anybody know of anything? Thank you. For a 30ft GRP.

Not sure if Napton Narrowboats rent their wet dock out or not but it could be worth asking them.

It wouldn't surprise me to see Calcutt sold as soon as Roger dies.

.....as close to Napton as possible.... 🙂

 

You need to figure in to your equation whether all the local docks have facilities to dock a GRP, where the usual V hull will need different supports to most flat bottomed narrowboats.

Hard standing at Gayton, Grand Junction, Clifton (7ft max w), Yelvertoft, Debdale, perhaps at Pete Nicholls(Braunston), docks at Calcutt, Ventnor, Braunston, Hillmorton, Kate Boats at Long Itchington, Whilton, Weedon

Or suitable lengths of 6" diameter wooden stakes.
