Are there still cheap moorings on the east coast?

[Leighb]

OP's boat is 38' LOA.
IIRC, Kings Yard has 37' limit for their moorings.
Could not het a mooring there when we applied for our previous boat, an Etap 38i.

I was not aware of the size limit, but you may well be right.

That's no way to speak of Jolie Brise, I thought she was quite nice.

She was in a former life, a "Pilot Cutter"

As seen in St Quay this summer

Hi all

Does anyone know anywhere in suffolk or near to that I can moor a 50' barge-like boat I am thinking of converting into a live aboard? it needs to be dirt cheap and I am not averse to roughing it a bit. Loosing my job and house not long ago has propelled me into what I hope is a change of lifestyle for the better

Best regards

Hi Martin

You have posted on a fourteen month old thread.

You may get a better response if you start your own thread either here or on East Coast Meeting Forum (which is not just about meetings).

Good luck.

No-one has mentioned Pin Mill, the club have some moorings, but the majority are run by Kings's boatyard. They are good value, but for that reason there is close to 100% occupancy. However no harm in enquiring as you are looking ahead.

I was recently quoted $1300 per year for a slip for a 26' boat at a marina where I used to keep a sailboat. The marina is well-protected, yet has a relatively short channel to open water. I never touched bottom with 4' of draft regardless of the state of tide.

Oh wait, you are talking about the east coast of Great Britain. I'm on a different east coast.

An easy mistake to make!
