Care & Attention ...

At Butlers Marina your cruiser is given that extra special care and attention with:-   our unique boat lifting trailer, which has a Safe Weight Limit certificate, certified to lift a maximum of 47 tons and up to 60 foot long   there is no squeezing of your superstructure and hull thus avoiding leaky windows,   our 150 hp "New Holland" tractor (so there is no shortage of horse power).   We arrange Boat Lifting days so that we have 4 men available to ensure everything goes safely and smoothly, etc.    Our Indoor Winter Berthage Facilities provides that extra coverage to protect and maintain your cruiser from the harsh winter rain and keeps the temperature relatively constant.

 

Drive Slowly and Carefully

Access Roadway                 Since the 11th May, 2006, Leitrim County Council are digging up the roadway from the N4 to the Marina gates, in order to put down a new rising sewage main to service the town of Carrick on Shannon. The roadway is in a mess but hopefully it will be sorted out shortly.                On the 15th March, 2007, I was told that the County Council intends to widen the roadway and some ESB poles need to be moved before the road is finalised. Meanwhile, some stones and chippings have been put down to make the access somewhat respectable.               On the 20th June 2007, some tarmacadam was put down which improves the appearance.              Ongoing construction works continue with a new office block and housing.             On the 25th August 2008 I was told that a new footpath was to be installed on part of the roadway. Construction works continue on the Office Bulidings and housing.                      Safe Driving.   Remember,  you are no longer in a hurry  when you have had an accident .
