Glastron on the Thames

Tingdene Boat Sales is pleased to announce that it has been appointed as the Thames dealer for the Glastron range of sportsboats, sportscruisers and bowriders.

Glastron is one of the most iconic motorboat brands of all time – the company has been building boats for over 60 years and its classic GT models in the 1960s and 70s were the boats to be seen in. Today's models take design clues from that classic era, but blended with the very latest hull designs, engines, fit out and clever modern detailing to provide great pleasure of ownership today.

New Tyler Broom narrowboat range announced

A new narrowboat, based on British boatbuilding heritage

At a time when many narrowboat builders have moved production out of the UK to deal with rising costs, Tyler Wilson has fervently stuck to its principles of British-built hulls using only the best quality steel. Equally, Broom Boats has a long heritage of building hand-crafted boats from its base in Norfolk and is famous for its uncompromising quality. This partnership of two of the most renowned British boatbulders is a celebration of the skills held in the British marine industry and a commitment to creating something truly special.
