Winter Moorings

[cotswoldsman]

Well the winter mooring prices have been released by CaRT. The prices for a 60ft boat range from about £125 to £425 per month. What a bargain for moorings with no facilities!!!!

Might as well stay on the towpath :-))

I think if CaRT priced them sensibly plenty of people would take them but I think at these prices people will just move every 14 days. Better selling 500 winter moorings at say £50 - £75 per month than non at £125 - £425 per month

I've been offered winter marina facilities that are cheaper than brown meadow in Uxbridge, CRT needs to look at the real world.

Not surprised at £9.13 per m

My winter mooring has just fallen through.

 

Oh, well back to plan 'B' when I have thought of it.

Mine is completely on schedule due to a 3 month closure!!

£18/metre in London. So my boat would cost £324 per month. As opposed to the £270 I'm paying in a marina for residential with full facilities and just 25 mins from Liverpool St by train. Seems a little steep.

For around 200 pounds a month (and probably a lot less in some places) for a 57 foot boat you can have a modern marina berth with all facilities up here in the north. Shhhh..don't tell everyone though.
