The Crick Boat Show is back and we’re delighted to be taking part again this year. It’s Britain’s biggest inland waterways festival and takes place from Friday 20th – Sunday 22nd August 2021 at Crick Marina in Northamptonshire.
The Southampton International Boat Show 2019 is an annual event that takes place at the Mayflower Park in Southampton. Now in its 51st year, it’s one of the biggest festivals of boating and takes place from Friday 13th September to Sunday 22nd September 2019.
The Southampton Boat Show boasts some of the most luxurious and innovative boats, 100’s of exhibitors, expert talks, product launches and much more throughout the ten-day event. Thousands of people visit the show each year, finding their passion for the water. You can experience sailing aboard a yacht or you can test the water with things such as stand-up paddle boarding or a high-speed RIB.
This year the marina has been expanded to accommodate more exhibitors, boats and on water activities than the previous year, so whether you are an expert or you have just discovered a lifestyle in the water, this is a show not to be missed.

At the end of May this year, Assist Insurance attended the Crick Boat Show. The Crick Boat Show was celebrating its 20th show this year and we were there to provide useful information about insuring your narrowboat, barge, widebeam, livaboard or inland waterways boat. As one of the UK’s leading leisure insurance companies, we also provide insurance for a range of other boats, such as motor cruisers, speed boats, yachts and dinghies so the Assist Insurance team were on hand to answer any questions.
We had the most beautiful weather throughout the days we were there and although one morning it did rain heavily for about half an hour, this was it and the event was a complete success. Throughout the 3 days of the Crick Boat Show, the Assist Insurance team met both existing customers and potential new ones and lots of people brought their dogs, which was enjoyable for us too.
The Crick Boat Show this year was bigger and better than ever, with hundreds of boats to view. There were free boats trips, boat handling sessions and seminars to extend your knowledge about all things boating. There was also music, entertainment and plenty of food and drink options.
We were giving away goodie bags, which had a number of nice treats inside such as floating keyrings, notebooks, pens and our waterproof mobile phone holders with lanyards, which went down especially well. Everyone who visited us at our stand collected their goodie bag and also had the opportunity to enter into our free prize draw, where we were giving away to one lucky winner one year’s free insurance for their boat.
The prize draw took pace on the 1st July and we are delighted to announce that the winner is…
Mr & Mrs Hilling, Congratulations!!
We contacted Mr & Mrs Hilling who were absolutely delighted to win this years prize draw, which is one years free insurance for their narrowboat.
We would like to thank everyone who came to the stand, entered the prize draw and had a chat with us. We look forward to doing it all again next year. For those of you who asked to be contacted when your boat insurance is due for renewal we will be in touch closer to your renewal date.
Until next year….
