Anchoring!

[ QUOTE ]
One of the problems that we have is that in Fowey there is simply no designated anchorage within the harbour...

Cant you anchor between the moorings up by the china clay place any l;onger? Not been there for a few years .
 
The moorings are too dense... but I often pick one up an HM sometimes don't bother to come up there. And, full credit to them,, they do not pursue all visiting yachts with the same obsession as Salcombe's. Therefore I much prefer Fowey, so I go there more often, I spend more money there, in bars, restaurants, shops and the chandlery. Salcombe? I go up to Kingswhatitsname....
 
We did have a rude awackening a couple of weeks ago on the Mixtow pontoon... we were in the process of rafting up when the dude called across from the pontoon...

"Can I have a word " , whilst I was still tieing up... anyways, thinking I had done something terrible I went across and he just wanted his money... I though this a bit odd... but another boat arrived outside of us and before he had managed to tie up, it was the same thing... bloke calling across, "Can I have a word" and really just wanting money.....

Now LAST year, same fellow wandered down after we were tied up and said hello, and anytime that was convenient I could pop by the office to pay the fees....

A totally different and much more aggressive and unwelcoming approach this year.. Not too happy... New toilet block put in but the showeres were not working... so not happy all around.

Why is it so easy to get annoyed about this sort of thing???
