Windermere boat storage

[!HD]

Hi all,
i will be hopfully making the most of the lake next year **hoping it wont be the last too**,
but its a long trek to Windermere towing the boat from Blackpool,
So i was wondering if any of the 6000 lake register boat owners out there know of a good / cheap boat storage place with launching area onto Windermere,Also can anyone tell me what the lake reg fee's are please
Thx in Advance !HD

Hi,

I'd recommend the marina village for storage, but it is a wet berth so your hull will need a good polish every season and also the marina isn't very cheap. i'm sure htere must be some places tho, maybe near ferry nab.

on fees, it varies on your engine size. we paid £40 per year but our engine is 190hp, i think its all the same tho after 70hp, best to call the wardens at ferry nab to be sure. not sure on the number for the nab office but the actaul registration scheme office number is 01539 792643

Hope this helps

think the marina is about 2500 a year. but you do get use of the facilities and it's pretty cool. i think the low wood ski centre charge just over a grand for hard standing right next to the lake and they have facilites like showers and changing rooms and a tractor for launching. the other option is to moor on the lake itself which is around £80/meter/year.
the low wood's number is 01539439441. i'm on a mooring which is ok and cheap but the boats tend to get a bit dirty.

OUCH !!!!
Still waiting on them returning my call :?
£560 sounds much better for a year ill be too busy on the water to worry about facilities :lol:
White Cross Bay Leisure Park and Marina was £1050
thx for the added info

anyone else with any other ideas :idea:

white cross bay is the cheapest place and u dont have to go more than 200yards and you are out of any speed restrictions!
