Welcome To Soar Valley Steel Boats

We are steel shell builders with a growing reputation for building quality steel narrowboat frames and wide beam shells. Having previously been based in Chesterfield, we moved to Redhill Marina near Nottingham in 2008. Our marina-based premises are centrally located within the UK, close to Junction 24 on the M1 near the East Midlands Parkway Railway Station. We are situated in the heart of the waterway system, with the River Trent and The Trent and Mersey Canal to the north, and with the Grand Union Canal to the south.
