Naughty Cal Posted March 15, 2018 Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 We have the makings of perhaps another plan for Naughty-Cal but could do with some advice. Are there any slipways in the Stourport area suitable for launching a 25ft boat? On a similar note are there any in the Bristol area suitable to recover a 25ft boat?

One of the slipways it shows in Brayford Pool isn't useable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightwatch Posted March 16, 2018 Report Share Posted March 16, 2018 (edited) We came down the Severn from Stourport to Tewksbury last year. Lovely. We then did the Avon to Stratford. Lovely. Enjoy if you do decide to do. Martyn Edited March 16, 2018 by Nightwatch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martyn It's only an idea at the moment but we are considering getting NC trailed to the Stourport area, having a week on the non tidal Severn and then coming out at Sharpness and onto Portishead. Then weather depending either heading across to Cardiff or if the weather isn't being nice head back inland to Bristol and perhaps onto Bath time depending and slipway dependant.

Make certain you leave plenty of time for the G&S, it is fab down there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contact Mal at Stourport (Tingdene) Marina they have a good slipway and cranage facilities and can help with unbeatable road deals with a local (over the road) haulage contractor - as a team they shipped a 30ft Dutch steel motor cruiser for me a few years back from York to Stourport no issues - all good honest working guys who will do deals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
