Swallow Cruisers

Swallow Cruisers is not just a boat yard it's a happy place to moor a boat. Last night there as a great gathering of moorers enjoying a BBQ & social evening. "Here is a photo from last nights 1st “SwallowFest”..can we put out a big thanks to “ Tom Beech “ who played some great tunes & our resident Top Chef Dan for the wonderful catering!" photo & message: Andy, Swallow Cruisers Manager.

Just spotted this on another FB page - "stopped at Swallow Cruisers, the guy there was great as was the service and welcome". Service with a smile!! :-)

It's busy at Swallow Cruisers. Here is the latest job:-

Here are some photos from Andy, Manager at Swallow Cruisers, of a locking fuel flap that Dan Fabricated from scratch to one of our customers boats .

Yet another boat waiting to be craned into the yard at Swallow Cruisers. NB Morning Mist moored on the off side ready for the mornings job.

It's busy at Swallow Cruisers with people getting ready for their Summer cruising. Boats are being craned out for work to be done. The chandlery is ready for your boating needs so do pop in if you are traveling along the North Stratford Canal or phone in advance to see if we have what you need. 01564 783442

Thanks to Peter Stepek from the Australian Canal Socety for taking and sharing this video which shows a boat being moved at Swallow Cruisers last year. This is quite a regular sight as boats are lifted in and out of the water to be worked on either by Swallow Cruisers staff or a DIY job.
