Hitting the headlines!

HOLIDAYMAKERS were rescued after a hire boat got caught in fast-flowing river water and slammed into a bank.

Starline Called in to Assist Stranded Boat on the treacherous upper reaches of the River Severn.

Two of our team had the rare opportunity to take in the views of the non-navigable stretch of the River Severn on bank holiday Monday to assist in the rescue of a hire boat belonging to one of the UK's largest hire boat companies. The stricken vessel was piloted into the shallow, fast flowing and treacherous waters on the upper stretches near Bewdley by its crew.
The crew had been rescued by the fire and rescue services the previous night however it soon became apparent that they would be unable to recover the Narrowboat due to the depth of water and speed of the current. First class helmsmanship and rope work by our team enabled us to throw a line to the vessel and carefully tow them backwards avoiding rocks, swells and over hanging trees. For a short time both boats were swept sideways along the river but once again, excellent helmsmanship finally steered both boats away from the current and they returned safely to our base in Stourport with minimal damage.
Two positives to come out of the situation for us, the boat and crew from the other company were eventually able to carry on their holiday after a few checks and we demonstrated our skills as first class boat handlers in a very risky situation. Well done to everyone involved for making sure that this rescue went as smoothly and as safely as possible.

What an absolutely stunning day to be out and about on the Canal! Not one of our hire boats but a member of the teams getting ready to come out of the water for a good paint. You'll find that most of our handover team are full-time liveaboards and long term boat owners so you don't only get our quality structured training you also get the benefit of many years of experience!

Although we offer our boats for hire 365 days of the year, for us, It's nearing the start of the main 2023 season. We're still working hard to make the boats look good both inside and out so they're ready for you to head off into the sunset on your canal boat adventure. Here's Dawn Star in the wet dock getting some smart new paintwork and a bit of a makeover.

Working on the fitting out and refurbishment of narrowboats the job will involve designing and constructing built in furniture within the marine sector. They will know and have had previous experience of working with a range of woodworking machinery and be able to work with a minimum of supervision. A high standard of workmanship will be required. Though not essential previous knowledge of marine timberwork would be an advantage. Consideration would be given to those seeking a part time position.
