Around twenty boats moored at Windermere Marina Village had sunk last month due to the floods.
The affected boats were all attached to fixed piers at the site.
Unlike boats tethered to floating buoys, they were unable to rise and fall with the changing water levels.
Some boats were fully submerged while others were sticking out the water.
Below are series of photos of some of the damage caused at Windermere Marina Village.

Although the photographs look devastating it was a different story over the next couple of days as the water level receded.
The team work tirelessly to ensure that as many of the boats as possible were secure. Out of the 400 boats we were unable to save 23.

Windermere Marina Village http://www.wmv.co.uk would like to thank all of the mooring holders and local businesses who have worked with us to return the marina to normality.
All our normal services were up and running within two weeks and we are very much open to our mooring holders over the festive period.
