Our 25t Coles Crane
(aka 'Colin') can lift most boats for bottom blacking, below-the-line
repairs, inspections or surveys. Fully insured and certificated,
you can rest assured that your boat can safely have some 'time
out' at TLC
Lifted boats can be placed on our
hardstanding, on our trailer for pushing into the Barn, or to
or from your trailer. We can also lift one end at a time of any
boat for stern gear or bow-thruster maintenance.
Narrowboat 'Somnalis' has been lifted
out and slewed round on to the hardstanding by the Grist Mill
for bottom blacking. This boat is 45ft long, but we can lift longer
. . .

Narrowboat 'Leo'
required a new propeller. We lifted the stern of this 60' boat to
allow the owner clear access to the propeller shaft.
Work tug 'Matthew'
had been carrying out maintenance work on the Basingstoke Canal
when it needed some maintenance of it's own. Serious damage, caused
by debris in the canal, meant that the entire stern drive unit had
to be removed for repair and subsequent refit.
Cruiser 'Arctic
Tern' has just been lifted and placed the stands on the hardstanding
for the owners to anti-foul her and carry out repairs to the rubbing
strakes.
This 70' narrowboat
had been experiencing rudder problems so we lifted the stern to
assess the situation and plan corrective action.
'Diamond Lady',
a Sea Otter narrowboat, has just had a repaint and has been pulled
out the Barn by 'Lenny' ready for re-launch. 'Kevin' (our previous
crane) is on standby ready to lift her back in to the water.
