Still smiling after Crick Boat Show — and feedback like this is a big reason why 😊
From those first “we’ve just bought a boat…” chats, to being there when it really matters, it’s all about making boat insurance feel a bit easier (and a lot more human).
We loved meeting so many new faces at Crick - thanks for stopping by!

Good cover is important – but great service makes it even better. We try to keep things simple with fair pricing, cover that actually fits your narrowboat, and a friendly team who are easy to get hold of when you need them.
After a busy weekend chatting with boaters at events like Crick Boat Show it’s always nice to be reminded that this is what matters most.

What a weekend at the 2026 Crick Boat Show!
As we look back after another fantastic few days, we just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who stopped by our stands. The weather certainly delivered this year – amazing (if slightly baking!) sunshine from start to finish – and you all brought the energy to match!
We had a brilliant time chatting with so many of you – including plenty of your four-legged friends – and were delighted to be able to provide boat insurance quotes and guidance on the stand. We hope we didn’t disappoint!!
A big congratulations also goes to all of our winners of the ‘Life on the Cut’ competition! Our talented artist has now begun collating all the wonderful images captured over the weekend to create our ‘24 Hours of Crick’ montage, which we’ll be giving away later this summer. We genuinely can’t wait to see the finished piece – it’s going to be something really special. Thank you Mar Lopez
Our Favourite Boat in Show area was incredibly busy all weekend, with so many of you casting your votes – it was fantastic to see such brilliant engagement. We’re incredibly proud to continue sponsoring this award, and of course, a huge congratulations to this year’s winner – Elton Moss Boat Company and Paul and Anthony from Narrowboat Life Unlocked
It was fantastic to be supported again by Fran and Rich from Floating Our Boat , who spent time on the stand chatting with visitors and sharing their experiences – always a highlight of the show.
Finally, a massive thank you to the organisers of the Crick Boat Show, and to all those who volunteered their time to keep everything running smoothly and safely throughout the weekend – it really doesn’t go unnoticed
We’re already looking forward to 2027!

And the winner is… 🏆
A huge congratulations to Dexter’s Star, crowned this year’s Favourite Boat in Show at Crick Boat Show 🐕🌟
It’s been a real showstopper all weekend, attracting crowds and long queues from visitors keen to take a closer look. A beautiful build by Elton Moss Boat Company, and proudly owned by Anthony and Paul from Narrowboat Life Unlocked, it's clear why it took this year’s title.
Well done to runner up Ovation Boats with 'Silver Ghost' and in third place 'Clover' from Braidbar Boats.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to cast their vote - and to all the brilliant boats that made the competition so tough this year, and one we're proud to sponsor once again.
