The Slipway

24/03/2026

After nearly 31 wonderful years, Sharon and Graeme Baxter have officially handed over the keys of The Slipway to Gary Williams, marking the end of a remarkable chapter and the beginning of an exciting new one.

Gary has pledged to carry on the Slipway’s tradition of offering “everything you need for the beach and more,” while continuing the strong support for local community events that Sharon and Graeme have championed over the years.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to Sharon and Graeme for their dedication and wish them all the very best for the future. At the same time, we wish Gary every success as he takes the Slipway forward into its next chapter.
