Boat lift in Penton Hook area?

[neale]

Need to get the boat lifted and blocked off for a couple of days. Apart from Penton Hook Marina, are there any other yards in the area that I should consider. (Meaning Cheaper than Penton Hook Marina )

Cheers

How big is "the area"? Chertsey Meads might be an option.

Sorry should have been more clear. I am happy to go through Penton Hook Lock so the stretch between Chertsey and Bell Weir locks would be perfect.

Chertsey Mead is a good tip, thanks.

Cheapest is probably Lyndon Lewis Marine at Shepperton Lock

no crane at Shepperton Lock - at least didn't used to be - just a slipway. Also try Bates at Chertsey - they have a fairly new crane but don't know what they charge.

Perhaps he means Shepperton Marina? Certainly a crane there.

Chertsey Meads looks a good working boatyard, but always looks "standing room only" to me.

4All boating at Laleham has a submersibe trolley (if that's the correct term) which ought to be cheaper, but I don't know if it will take the OP's hull shape.

Crane at Shepperton

Just to make a correction.
The crane at Shepperton Marina is now run by the marina as part of their facilities.
Lindon Lewis Marine, although on site do not control the crane or the hard-standing. I am sure they will be happy to carry out any work but for the boat lift you will be dealing with Shepperton Marina.

I didn't mention Laleham because I've only ever seen narrowboats on their cradle. Bridge Marine by Walton Bridge also haul out on a cradle, they can certainly get a Seamaster 30 in and out there.

Thanks all. It's all sorted and booked.
