This last weekend saw us take our preparations for the new boating season up another few levels with our annual Dewinterising weekend.

A band of hearty dedicated souls descended on Bottom Lock at Braunston to take Lancelot and Gunevere out of their winter hibernation, all in preparation for the arrival of our first communty group client guests in the coming week.

As you can see from the picture gallery below, a lot went on and got completed over the course of the weekend with both boats being thoroughly cleaned inside and out, and a lot of jobs, tasks and checks all undertaken and completed by the very hard working team.

 

LNBP Chairperson John Tobin reported it was a very good productive (if at times very cold) Dewinterising weekend and it was wonderful to see so many faces come along and get involved; many of whom stayed for the duration of the weekend having arrived on Friday and did not depart until Monday!

A huge thank you to everyone who attended and participated our Dewinterising Weekend. Everyone’s contributions are gratefully appreciated and valued; the upshot being that we are now all set for the arrival of our first client guests and the start of our 2025 season this weekend.

  • Our 2025 season is set to get underway shortly and it is a busy one in prospect as we look forward to welcoming community client groups old and new aboard Lancelot and Guinevere to enjoy weekend or weekday residential holidays and short breaks.

If you think you have left it too late to book your group for the coming year, do not despair.  We still have some availability between March and October, even if some of it is limited over some key periods and weekends.
