ABC Leisure Group has great experience of managing all types of multi usage, and multi owned canal boats. The original company Alvechurch Boat Centres has been in existence for over 35 years.
Click here to find out more about us at our corporate website (www.abclg.com).
Along with operating a hire fleet of over 200 boats we also operate boats for other organisations and groups such as: The Bank of England, The RAF, The Navy, The BBC, Diamond Resorts, Ex Challenger Syndicates, Birmingham Health Trust, and more.
We are unique in that we own and operate eight strategically placed
marinas and two boat building operations which means we can, if required,
personally provide almost all the services required in the operation
of a canal boat during its entire life. However, we also manage boats
which are located on other companies marinas so using our own bases
is not a prerequisite, although we can offer a financial benefit to
those that do.
