£90000 to get from bristol to sharpness sounds expensive.

That includes interim certification to allow the move, dry docking fees, dock charges, pilotage, fuel and the provision of a crew. Surprising how it adds up - I have seen the figures myself.

I'm doing the trip this weekend, via Portishead. Even with the marina fees, I think the costs will be a little lower!
