Canal Boatyards, marinas & moorings

UK canalside and riverside boatyards and marinas, moorings, boat docking & other boatyard facilities.
If you are thinking of buying your own canal boat you'll need somewhere to moor it and to keep it maintained. There are 'online' moorings along many stretches of canals but the increasing trend is towards mooring off the main line of the canal, in marinas. Canal marinas and canal boatyards can provide more security, a range of useful services and less chance of disturbance to your moorings by passing boats. Many canal boatyards and canal marinas also have boats for sale, carry out maintenance and repairs and operate chandleries and canalside shops, check for icons below.

BollardMoorings & Boatyard Services. Boatyards also frequently have associated moorings.  Boatyards and marinas both usually offer boat supplies and maintenance facilities. Marinas frequently sell second hand and new canal boats, some boatyards do too. Because of the obvious overlaps we've listed canal marinas and canal boatyards together here. This list is not complete, we are continually adding to it. Wherever possible we have given an email address.

Please mention CANAL JUNCTION when you contact boatyards or marinas. Please note: We provide all contact details as an information service. We rely on traders to keep us informed so can't guarantee that details are accurate or up to date. It is prudent to check all businesses you wish to deal with. See our Terms of Use.

Moorings can cost from about 30 pence per foot of boat length per week, up to about 70 pence per foot per week. That equates to from £700 to about £1600  per year for a forty five foot boat, or £1000 to £2500  per year for a full length (70 foot) boat, more in the London area. These figures are for annual moorings, short term moorings may cost more. More expensive moorings may be expected to have more facilities, such as showers, washrooms, Internet access, or may be in a more popular area.
