The boathouse and slipway were used until 1980, when a new Arun-classĮighteenth-century coaching inn, Haven Inn is situated on Ferry Road near the intersection with Marsh Lane.

The largest RORO passenger ferry is MS Color Magic Then I'll have the boat and trailer at home for the other 5 months.Wikipedia pages that might relate to Ferry Lane SlipwayĪpproximately 4m of lane space required to store a 1.5m wide Toyota Corona) or in car-equivalent units (CEU). Suffice to say that I'm going in the water at Thames & Kennet next year for 7 months with a month out on the Norfolk Broads and maybe the Great Ouse. Even overnighting on a Saturday and recovering on a Sunday afternoon becomes a chore. If your boat's anything like mine, you'll soon tire of launching and recovering on the same day. IMO, the ones that suit me best are Penton Hook and Benson. All in length is 43' and nearly 2 tons loaded. I tow a Viking 20 on a twin axle trailer with a Jeep Grand Cherokee. IMO, public ones are OK if you're just out for the day but if you're overnighting for one or several nights, it's comforting to know that with private slips you've a fair chance of your car and trailer still being there when you return. You'll notice that all of the above slips are private marinas and NOT public slipways.
When you consider that one of their campsite pitches with electric and water and use of the showers & laundry costs just under £20 a night, the slipway charges can be unacceptable.

Sort of secure (key pad entry vehicle gates) but nothing to stop Joe public wandering around the site. īenson Waterfront/marina - good slipway, easy to manoeuvre the trailer unless it's a busy weekend and then there's cars everywhere. But at £20 launch and £20 recovery, this slip is a rip off. off numerous slipways, docks, harbours and historic buildings from the Thames is. Val Wyatt Wargrave - good slipway, quite steep. 1: The maritime use of the lower Thames historic marine infrastructure. Good secure parking, small waiting pontoon. MDL Windsor marina - good slip but with a sharp drop off at the end. See MDL Penton Hook website for charges - very reasonable, something like £15 all in, including parking. Plenty of secure parking when there's no boats on the hard. Penton Hook marina- good slipway but steep, really needs a 4x4 to recover if wet.
