FOR anyone bitten by the boating bug, Val Wyatt Marine — located just five minutes downstream from the Wargrave and Shiplake Regatta ferry point — will be open across the weekend, showcasing new and used boats available for sale.
The marina has been operating since 1845 when it first sold punts and skiffs. Today, 171 years on, the new-look Willow Marina caters for everything you need to get boating.
There is a huge variety of motorboats to be seen on the Thames, which can make deciding what you want a daunting task.
The team at Val Wyatt are here to support you in discovering the right boat for you. As well as a broad used-boat selection on site, Val Wyatt offers new open day boats by the award-winning Interboat (as pictured) and Corsiva for under £10,000 — both now regular sights in Henley.
New for 2016, British-built Haines cruisers are available from Val Wyatt. The range offers you everything from a compact 26ft cruiser through to a luxuriously equipped 42ft craft for longer adventures.
It’s not just all boats at Willow Marina. The on-site produce shop the Local Larder is open every day from 10am to 4pm, offering unique and sustainably made goods, and the opportunity for a coffee and cake by the river to watch the word cruise by.
