Well… it’s been a few minutes, not 3 years this time! 😅⚓

While we’ve been quiet on social media, a lot has been going on behind the scenes at Chas Newens Marine. Thanks to Covid and the ever-climbing costs of retail property, we made the tough (but necessary) decision to up sticks, wave goodbye to the old showroom, and set sail downriver (some 500yards!) to Ashlone Wharf — our new home for nearly two years now!

With the move came a bit of reinvention. We’ve embraced life as an e-Shop, and we’re proud to say we now stock even more than we ever did in the showroom — including some brilliant international products from top-notch manufacturers.

Take a look at https://shop.chastheboat.co.uk/

And fear not — going online doesn’t mean we’ve gone impersonal. Order online and you can still collect from site, say hello, and enjoy the same friendly, knowledgeable service we’ve always offered.

More updates, good stuff, and boating banter coming very soon… watch this space! 🚤😄
