    Coming alongside pontoons with a cross-wind - advice needed please!

    Hi Doug, Yes that does actually seem like a good route. Even if the wind were to push me I would end up in bay 5 and then can pull across with lines. With regards to the numbering, VB3 does not exist on the website page, the PDF download, the booklet they handed me or on the board in the...

    Coming alongside pontoons with a cross-wind - advice needed please!

    It is a 2000 Sun Odyssey 37.4 When you say a warp in the right place are you referring to something like springing off from the potion but to get on to it?

    Coming alongside pontoons with a cross-wind - advice needed please!

    Luckily 5 was free as we would have hit into a boat if it was in that spot.

This would prob work but not if a boat was...

    Greece Marina Fees & General Fees In the Med

    I did see a lot of town quays on navily and in some forums, I thought these would be ideal while we are cruising but as you have mentioned the limitations of the visa we may need to come back and store the boat for a while.

    Greece Marina Fees & General Fees In the Med

    I asked about the VAT as I'm not 100% on all of this as we are outside the EU. I had the following response from the broker regarding VAT. Would this mean we won't need to pay VAT but we would if we bring it back to the UK? We are planning on keeping it around the med and doing the...
