Two bits of good news - it has rained, and we have had a re-stock.

And boat stands are back in stock! A top up delivery in today. We have marked them as back in stock.

We have also added replacement pads for those that have had stands for a long time, needing just the pads replaced.

Your order is ready. Would you like to collect it?

A train wheel for mooring a large boat in a very wide tidal river, with the chain attached and ready to be laid next week.

And yes, we are arranging the transport and confirmed that they have the crane to lift it off at the other end.

This date is approaching. “Some never made it back.”

National Fishing Remembrance Day is held on Sunday 10 May each year. It is a time to recognise those who never came home from the sea.

The UK fishing industry remains one of the most dangerous occupations. Behind every vessel is a crew, a family, and a story that deserves to be remembered.

Fishing communities across the entire UK coastline will be marking the day, from major ports to small working harbours, but the message applies far wider than the quayside.

If you work in marine, ports, logistics, or supply chains, take a moment:

Share this with your team
Talk about safety and standards
Use it as a prompt to review how you look after your people

This is not about a post. It is about awareness and respect.

The image attached is free for anyone to use. If it helps keep this date visible and gets people thinking, use it, share it, and pass it on.
