  1. A house I had previously had rules about no caravans. And no sign written vehicles strangely enough.
  2. That one is for sale. The boat I am working on is a bit bigger than that one. It's an old working barge from the 1930's. A way bigger project than we imagined.
  3. HahaI...nope, I have a house. which is my main residence. The boat is a retirement project.
  4. It's a leisure morning but we are currently gutting the boat and redesigning it. For clarification, the only time we sleep in the motorhome is when we are on holiday and not on the morning ( apart from when we fist bought it and stayed the night just for excitement sake xD)
  5. Thanks for the replies. To answer the questions There are 2 motorhomes that use the car park both owned by berth holders, 4 large work Van's. 6 cars. The majority of which have parked here for several years. It's a private road which according to CaRT when issues have arisen, is owned by the owner of the 2 houses at the bottom of the private road. The parking is not near the lock. A gate was put up to stop dog walkers parking near the lock. Yes, all vehicles are taxed/ MOT'd / insured
  6. Thank you for that information. Much appreciated
  7. Some advice please. Today I received an email from my mooring manager as below. Dear customer I’m writing following contact from the Regional team regarding issues with the parking area at the ******** **** end of the mooring site. There seems to be a number of motorhomes that have been parked in the parking area recently and unfortunately motorhomes/campervans or caravans are not permitted in the parking area. We are looking at improving signage so that it is clearer but, in the meantime, if you have a motorhome parked in parking area or know of the owners, please can they be moved off site at the earliest convenience. I am aware that the vehicles may not be owned by mooring customers, but if you have any information about who does own them then please do let me know. I have checked my mooring contract and it states that I can't have a caravan or trailer of any kind but doesn't mention campers etc. We use the motorhome when we are at the boat as we are currently doing some work on it and we can cook/ have a cuppa etc in the van. The parking area is as on the mooring details as first come first served. No allocated spaces. I'm just wondering if anyone has any advice on where I stand in this situation?
  8. Hi. Thanks for your suggestion. Yes I can restart it immediately after it cuts out. I'll check everything again to check for a leak.
  9. Asking for my brothers boat which has a 1.5 BMC in it. It fires up and runs for around 5-10 seconds and then cuts out. So far we have checked the deisel ( had it cleaned due to water in the tank), the fuel pump, injectors etc. I'm now running out of ideas and would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks for reading.
  10. I think it's aviation fuel rather than gas but it was taken pretty seriously.
  11. Yes. It has been mentioned by myself and other moorers here to both the licence checker and the moorings manager. Nothing has been done unfortunately. Who knows what happens behind the scenes though. Tbf...last time they tried to lift a boat here the whole town got locked down due to the piss taker threatening to blow the gas works up xD
  12. I completely agree. There are 8 boats where I moor on a C&RT mooring. There are at least 12 on the otherside of the canal the have well exceeded the 2 weeks allowed. One has been there around 9 months. Most don't have any identification i.e name or number. C&RT say they can't do anything. In the mean time my mooring and licence increases
  13. I just got the questionnaire through. Having had a quick scan, I don't see how they can enforce any of it. I did chuckle at them wanting to come and have a poke round inside though lol. I'm not sure any of them have ever stepped on a boat before ?
  14. The first one just went past ? We were expecting them earlier in the year but nice to see one at last. It was Farndale H carrying aggregate.
  15. I think the direct debit is for both boats so if I cancel it it will cancel for the other boat. Or so the tell me.. ?
