East Coast liveabord

[Tam Lin]

That being Sea Moon, owned previously by a couple of us on this forum.

How did Vic get on with her this season?

How did Vic get on with her this season?

We even beat him in extremely light airs on Sunday . I was lead to believe that NOTHING was as fast as an Anderson 22

Actually if you read what I really say, I always admit she's not good in light airs; the strong stuff is her forte.

Vic seems very pleased indeed from what he's said to me; and there's another about to be operational on the East Coast - nearby I think, don't know the area -probably starting next Spring.

I had better get into some training then

There are some permanent residents in Leigh "Marina" - its ok if you don't want to go sailing very often, reasonably near shops and pubs and the railway station.

Vic seemed very pleased with Sea Moon when I spoke with him earlier in the season, and the boat looked in very good condition.

Hi everyone thanks for the responses. I had thought about Tollesbury, Fambridge looks pritty good but going up and down the Crouch I think would drive me nuts!

I hadn't thought of Brightlingsea anyone with first hand experience I know it tends to have a bit of a bad reputation. any thoughts of Tichmarsh marina?

Hoo marina - again. Now run by Residential Marine; seems to be abt 50% liveaboards nowadays.
Gillingham marina over the river also has punters living aboard but not officially. There's Ferry Quay up the Deben if you can get a spot. But as others have said, anywhere so long as not conspicuous.

How about Granary Yacht Harbour at the top of the Deben at Melton?

Having today chatted to liveaboard friends who have spent the last 2 winters in Ipswich wetdock there is apparently a moderate community of permanent liveaboards there on the ABP moorings. No idea what the legalities might be though.

with 1 or 2 American boats

Theirs a few liveaboards at Titchmarsh marina in Walton. Expensive but good facilities and onsite restaurant that we visit regularly.
