Sawley Marina Slipway is located within Sawley Waterside and Marina, situated on the Sawley Cut — a navigational channel of the River Trent near Long Eaton in Nottinghamshire.

The marina itself is recognised as the largest inland marina in the UK, covering 23 acres of water space.

The slipway has roots going back to 1962, when the Davison brothers purchased land beside the Sawley Cut and constructed it as the foundation of what would grow into a full-service marina.

Today the facility sits within a well-equipped marina complex offering access to the River Trent, River Soar, and the Trent & Mersey Canal, connecting boaters to miles of inland waterways across the East Midlands.
