When lockdown ends Aqueduct Marina is charted to enter “Tier 2” as per the governments published list for England.

In summary, this all means that you’ll be able to visit your boat and almost all of our site will be operating just as it was prior to lockdown; this is only with the exception of the café which will be offering take away hot & cold drinks.

Don’t forget that you may be in a different tier or area and should check the details published by the Governments here before you travel:

Covid, awards and new toys… its been a strange but busy few months at the marina. Inside this issue we look at what has happened over the past few months as well as looking ahead to what 2021 has in store. Click the link below to view your copy.

Were glad to announce that the marina will be continuing to operate and all of our general services will be available to meet you’re boating needs whilst your away; to help everyone understand how we can do this, here is a guide to accessing our services from the 5^th of November until 2^nd of December.

Our reception will continue to be manned 7 days a week during normal office hours, although the doors will be closed and access will not be possible in person. All of your enquiries will be taken at our reception as normal by phoning 01270 525 040 or e-mailing info@aqueductmarina.co.uk

All our workshops will be continuing to work through our pre-booked workload and new requests.

This includes: servicing, winterising, fabrication, blacking, painting and any other general work. We will contact you directly with updates regarding existing work and you can contact reception as normal to request new work. Due to the lockdown all new work enquiries will be responded to in the first instance by phone and thereafter handled at distance with the aid of reports, pictures and videos as work progresses to completion.

Our brokerage will continue to be available through many mediums; we will be advertising online, speaking by phone and using online chat facilities to keep in touch with both buyers and sellers.

But unfortunately, we do not expect boat viewings to be allowed in person; to make up for this we’ll be filming individual videos, taking personal pictures and taking bookings for post lockdown visits.

Will remain open throughout lockdown to supply our workshops with parts and to provide essential items for those who require them; this include diesel, coal and pump-out services in addition to items which can be purchased via a call and collect system.

Although you will not be able to visit your boat in person for none-essential activities; access can be made available should you have an essential need to do so. You will need to inform us prior to visiting the site.

As you are unable to visit, we would like to offer you the opportunity to register for a free meter checking service. Once registered we will start checking periodically from 9^th of November until further notice; to be added to the checklist please contact reception. Charges for the electrical credit will then be charged to your account and payment requested by invoice.

Will remain open throughout lockdown and will continue to be cleaned on a daily basis. Access to washing machine tokens for those who require them will be available using a call and collect service.

As ever we will be monitoring the latest Government announcements and advice from trade organisations bodies such as British Marina so that we can update you with the most accurate information.

Thank you for your support and understanding during these challenging times; we will look forward to seeing you again here soon and in the meantime please feel free to contact our office.

We have waited as long as possible to see what may happen, but due to the restriction being placed on large social gathering and the continued concerns around Covid-19 we will unfortunately not be able to go ahead…

We will be continuing with our Boating Event later in the year and we will update everyone as soon as we can set the day. The new Boating Event will include both physical displays here at the marina and online virtual ones too…

If you would like to speak with our event organiser in the meantime, please e-mail:

We know the last few months have been tough as everyone has been separated from what they love the most; for some that will be friends and family and others it may be their narrowboat?

Whatever it maybe we would like to offer all of our moorers a free pre-season health check for their boat, this is to assist you in getting back to boating as soon as possible when the time comes!

We will run up your engine to get things lubricated internally and clear the damp.

Each battery is disconnected and tested individually; our battery testing equipment uses the specification of your battery to review and score its health on a scale of 1 to 100.

At the end of the health check each boat will receive a report card, listing results for the checks undertaken; if we feel anything is required this will be listed for review or we will call you on the day should action be more urgent.

As an engineer will already be attending to your boat, we can also offer the following additional services, some of which will be discounted;

Bacterial culturing is used to test if diesel bug is in your fuel system; we can now grow diesel bug in a test tube with a sample your fuel should it be contaminated!

Reduced in price by one hour’s labour; our standard engine service includes fuel filter, engine oil and filter replacement along with more technical checks.

*Gearbox oil, non-standard instillations and traditional engine services can also be undertaken; for more info ask a member of the team.

Traditional stern gland packing can be replaced whilst we are undertaking the free checks; if you think this need’s completing or if we advise you it looks due; you can simply add this to the visit.

We are also glad to confirm that our interior cleaners are back to work and available Monday – Saturday from next week; should you wish to have the interior of your boat cleaned before you visit for the first time after lockdown this can now be booked. Just so that you know… Our interior cleaners have changed their practices to ensure they can work in a Covid-Secure manner changing the cleaning products they use to those with virus fighting ingredients. The boat cleaning price has maintained its original standard cost of £36.00

Following the government announcement on Sunday 10^th of May, we are now reviewing procedures here at the marina to enable you and our staff to return safely.

The government has yet to release the guidance needed to do this and we must ask you not to make any immediate plans to visit the marina or your boat at this time.

The documents being prepared by the government are due to be released later today and as we know how keen you will be to have access to your boat, it is our aim to update you again within the next 48 hrs.
