I couldn't have done it without Bob! I had to move my boat from Bath to Keynsham (I am an extremely inexperienced boater) through at least 8 locks, one of the locks is one of England's deepest! And with a boat who's steering wont properly engage and a bit of a dodgy engine! Part way down the river all of a sudden the engine stopped completely, so there we were with tape and string and sticks and tools and on the phone to various mechanics. We were just drifting down the river and had to shout help so we could moor up to the side. It was beginning to get dark, and I jumped off to go for a wee and a packet of crisps. Next thing I knew Bob had miraculously gotten the engine up and running again, he had fixed it with STRING!!!! He also managed to make the steering work better too, it was incredible! So the last part of our journey was underfoot and we managed to make it all the way there!
So how much?
Below are basic rates per day for each service I provide. The way I calculate a quote is Service type multiplied by number of days plus costs of staff travel, between locations. That's it! No hidden nasty charges. I will fix a price with you, and I will stick to it.
Other costs outside our quote
Sometimes unforeseen emergency waterways stoppages or boat problems may affect the journey but you will always be fully informed of the situation. I will obviously do my utmost to avoid such situations but if the trip does have it's hitches I will always try and work something out. You will always be aware of what is going on and I will endeavour to finish the trip as swiftly as possible.
Some waterways en route may have restrictions/mooring fee's or require separate licences. I will deal with these as they arise and these costs are to be met by the client. Receipts are provided throughout. To cater for these costs I ask for a boat running float which is explained below.
Boat running float
The running float takes care of such costs as above along with fuel, gas and any pump outs that may be needed. The size of the float depends on the length and route of the relocation. Any monies used out of this float will be covered with a receipt and any remaining money will be handed back to you in cash along with the receipts to cover the expenditures at the end of the relocation.
That's it!- No small print.
Just crystal clear pricing
