Bases that welcome shared ownership narrowboats
These advertisers help to keep boatshare4u.co.uk available to everyone.
This is a list of the bases we believe are either currently providing a home mooring for shared ownership boats, have done so in the past or are willing to in the future. It is updated from time as new information becomes available.
If your current or prospective base is not in the list it is probably because noone has yet sent us the details, so please do ask them to let us have that information.
Please just drop us an email to andrew@boatshare4u.co.uk
Clicking on the base name will take you to the base website, if we have the details. Links to base websites are included on this site absolutely free of any charge.
Clicking on either the Base or Canal heading will sort the table. If you want to see which boats we think have a particular base as their home mooring, please go our list of boats and sort the table there by base.
