Some sheets of metal laid into the water from the bank. Popular with small boats hence can be difficult to park in amongst abandoned vans and trailers (free)Ģ. Good quality slip ideally placed for Henley and managed by James (hence the price, he needs to keep his own boat in fuel )įor smaller boats (trailers that can be handled by hand)ġ. Val Wyatt WArgrave - very expensive (£80 just for the two way use of the slip - parking extra. Almost impossible to turn around at slipway and no parking at allĥ. However the balcony of the Yacht Club bar looks over the slipway so you get plenty of spectators and "advice".Ĥ. We put our 7 metre boat in and out here as it is good and parking is great. £15 to park and launch in their secure marina car-park. Windsor Marina (MDL) - large slipway but complex reverse around corner of building. Supposedly limited to 6 metre boats mainly because of sheer drop of end of slipway (do not drop your trailer over the edge!) However I think its been extended?ģ.
Park trailer under bridge (free) and car in leisure centre car-park (standard charges apply). Windsor public slipway - large and well used. Walton Marina - can be tight with parked cars and boats poorly moored in marina but will take an 18ft bowrider ok.Ģ. In terms of public slipways that can take larger boats (power boats up to 6 or 7 metres then you are quite limited as large, well constructed slipways are few and far betweenįor these larger boats you can get in at:ġ.
You do not say what boat you have in both terms of model and size this will determine where you can slip from. Just seen I have to register it with EA which is ok as I'll measure length and Width when I collect it and pay the relevant fees BUT has anyone got experience of local slipways I should look to use?īoat on trailer is pretty light and manageable so may be ok to 'lower' and pull up a normal slipway with rope round towbar so as avoiding front wheel drive car or Transit van on slippy concrete.Īlso, need any info on parking trailer as notice at Windsor (beside Leisure Centre) that theres plenty parking but do you pay for trailer as well as car or do you leave trailer near slipway (yes I will be making it hard to steal!)Īny tips, info and general advice welcomed! Planning on using down there too but as we are up in Egham and as stones throw from Thames at Runnymede I thought I'd look at using it for odd little family trip around the area. Got the bug as friend has open boat we went out a lot down in Chichester harbour this Summer so went and bought a similar boat. all vessels must have the appropriate insurance.Totally new here and also a new boat owner. The normal rise and fall in a 24 hour period approx1m is possible hence the offer for attendance. Thames water lever can vary approx +/- 1.5m in a 24 hour period. To ensure all river users can easily access the water point by using the berth adjacent to the water point, this berth is not available for overnight mooring. Once tanks have been filled please leave the berth as quickly as possible to allow others to use the water point.
