ralphclaydon Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Hi Can anybody recommend a dry dock which allows DIY blacking in the Stourbridge area? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moley Posted August 23, 2013 Report Share Posted August 23, 2013 Your post seems to imply that Stourbridge dry dock doesn't ? Other than that, there's a dry dock at Stourport, phone Limekiln chandlers to enquire about that, or try Ashwood Marina for a crane-out, I'll PM a contact number. Ashwood definitely allows DIY and I'm pretty sure Stourport do too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashwood definitely allows DIY and I'm pretty sure Stourport do too. Ashwood Marina Hire in a crane, normally on the first Monday of the month. So boats are craned out and spend a month on hard standing, giving lots of time for DIY blacking and time for the new hull coating to harden off. They also use the crane to get hull surveys carried out, crane the boat out, let the surveyor check the hull, then crane the boat back in about an hour later.
