Hi

Has anybody got a name and contact number for a company called John White Boats in Liverpool? I have tried the landline number but it is not recognised, however I am told that they do still build quality narrowboats.

Thanks.

If the phone is dead and the website is also dead
(http://www.johnwhite-boatbuilders.co.uk/) - I for one would be highly
suspicious.

There's some *very* recent aerial photos in Google Maps - I see no ships...
http://goo.gl/maps/hjrhH - based on the postcode L19 8JA - unless they have
moved...

Hi

<http://www.canalworld.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=52376I> gives
his email address as <johnwhi...@hotmail.co.uk>

That was dated over 6 months ago (29th Nov 2012), but could be worth
trying.

Regards

Many years back they built indoors in a hanger like shed by Liverpool Airport.

Found this on another forum:

After posting the question, I went on Googling (as I had already done for about half an hour) and eventually came up with johnwhi...@hotmail.co.uk . Tried it, and have already received a very helpful reply!

Hope it works for you!

Now, why has a post from November last year answering a post from 2013
suddenly resurfaced?

Wasn't posted in November last year - might say that in the body of the
post but:

The poster needs to re-set his computer's date and time, or the server
he's using has the wrong date and time on it, then.

The post he's replying to is from 2013 though, as confirmed by Google.

Brian on Harnser spoke:
Can't find him there, but found (i think) his FB page which mostly consists
of FB game score posts.
