Venetian Marina on the Middlewich branch of the Shropshire Union Canal near Nantwich is hosting an Open Day on Sunday April 28.

The event is open to all narrowboaters and would-be-narrowboaters who can meet the marina team.

Industry professionals will be at the open day, including local marine surveyor Steven Hand.

Boat Safety examiner Russel Smith will also attend. Cover and Canvas Repairs will be holding demonstrations throughout the day and will be able to answer any queries.

There will be various stalls – Stewart Jones selling rope work items, Anita Birtle Bead Studio selling Lamps and glass beads and jewellery, and a garden ornament stall.

A new business called Narrowboat Glass will also be present.

Also on the day will be The Doggie Boat, The Hippie Boat, The Pirate Boat, The Fudge Boat and Stitchmiltz the sewing boat.

Members of the Shropshire Union Canal Society will be talking about canal restoration works on the Montgomery Canal.

Refreshments will be provided by Andrea at the Venetian Marina Tea rooms and there will be BBQ on offer outdoors.

Entertainment is being provided by acoustic duo Baxter.

Free canal boat trips will be provided by Sue and BJ Sandoe aboard their new day boat.

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

  1. You’ve forgotten to include a new exciting business which will lose out now on vital exposure of its existence..Narrowboat Glass! Hopefully this can be rectified somehow.
