🚤Narrowboat 318 – Rudder Assembly Complete

It’s been a little quiet on the Boat 318 updates lately, but there’s still plenty happening behind the scenes.

The rudder assembly is now complete, a nice bit of engineering done properly and another important stage ticked off the list.

Sometimes it’s the parts you don’t see straight away that show the workmanship best.

More from 318 soon.

So… about that valeting service 👀
A little look at the lads giving Bunnies Warren a proper polish.
Wait until you see the finished result

Something a little different today…
No, we haven’t suddenly opened a valeting and detailing department 😄
But Boat 126 from Braidbar Boats Bunnies Warren, is in for a proper polish and wax.

She’s getting the full treatment to bring her back up looking her best.

We’ll probably draw the line at a hanging air freshener though. 😆
Await the results 👀

Monday Evening question…
What’s the one job on your boat that’s been on the “I’ll sort that next weekend” list for far too long?

A bit of paint?
A leaky window?
Engine bay tidy up?
Blacking booked in?
Or something you’ve just decided to ignore until it becomes a bigger problem…

No judgement here😂

Had a good experience with Stoke Boats? Tell Facebook about it 😄⚓️

We recently asked for Google reviews, but realised we’d completely missed Facebook!

A lot of people discover Stoke Boats through social media, so your reviews really do help. They back up the work we’re showing, give new customers confidence and help get our name in front of more boat owners.

If we’ve worked on your boat and you were happy with the job, pop over to the Reviews section on our page and leave us a few words.

It only takes a minute, but it helps us more than you might think.

Thanks for helping us show Stoke Boats off to the world.

Narrowboat Dormeus – Officially Completed
We can now officially say she’s completed and ready to go.

Dormeus came in for a new sliding hatch, the roof stripped and repainted, along with a few other little modifications and she’s now looking the part again.

The owner has since been kind enough to leave us a lovely review too, which was really appreciated by the whole team.

Take a look at the before and after in the pictures below 👇

If your boat needs repairs, paintwork, modifications or a bit of attention, get in touch with the Stoke Boats team.

A little blast from the past on Boat 317.... skilled hands, proper workmanship, and another look back at the craft that went into this build.

Always worth showing again.
