Stoke on Trent Boat Building are narrowboat builders and widebeam builders committed to the construction of top quality boats. We can supply bare shells (we build our own), sailaway, and both standard and bespoke fully fitted craft. We have now built approaching 200 boats so no matter what your requirements we will be pleased to fulfill them. We also offer full boatyard services including rebottoming, refitting, boat lengthening, boat painting, bottom blacking, red diesel and chandlery.

We look forward to welcoming you here at Longport to show you boats currently in production and to discuss your particular plans. Please call in any time for a general viewing but it is best to phone or email in advance if you wish to have the uninterrupted attention of a member of our team.

Top quality, versatile design and excellent price—these were the criteria for our range of standard narrowboats. The Etruscan is available in a wide range of lengths and has a comprehensive list of options available to customise your boat to your particular requirements.

We regularly build stock boats in addition to customers orders. Whilst being for sale, these boats are also available to demonstrate to customers wishing to view an example of our work.

Many of the boats we build are bespoke, catering for customers with specifications outside our Etruscan range. We welcome the challenge of helping design and then building the boat to match your particular requirements. Hulls and layouts can be tailored to suit your demands. From modern sophistication to tug hulls, boatmans cabins and traditional engines we enjoy working with you to provide the boat of your dreams.

The same standards of quality and construction are evident in our wide-beam boats. The extra beam really increases the choices. So please give us a call to discuss your plans.
