I think it's probably because it's so difficult to draw a line. Touring caravan, wild / Yacht at anchor? No problem. Touring caravan in an otherwise empty site / Yacht on a visitor mooring? OK. Touring caravan in a busy site / Yacht visiting busy marina? Not OK. Static caravan on its own / Yacht on her mooring? Fine. Static caravan in a campsite / yacht in her marina berth? Not OK. Much easier just to say no overnights away. We'll survive, mostly.Personally I can’t see the logic in not being allowed to stay overnight.
I’ve nicked this off LittleSister (on here), but if I am found overnighting on my boat I shall simply say “I am here to test my eyesight officer”.

I see you are a new contributor to the forum, welcome. We do like to debate things to death, look at the anchor threads.I think threads like this need closing. They are debating a point that is totally polarised and has been debated to death.

Pardon me, but I thought that the whole point of the forum was so we could debate stuff to death.
Otherwise I’d have to do some work.
I had a lovely day sail this week.
Overall, I think I might have passed a couple of hundred empty moorings because of the
lock down.
I picked up one of them for lunch. After about half an hour, a very nice sailor turned up with his yacht and asked if I could move from his mooring.
Personally I can’t see the logic in not being allowed to stay overnight. Certainly not anchored or on a swinging mooring but it’s the law so....
