Hi folks
I was recommended to have a look at this forum from the main scuttlebutt forum.
I currently own a Princess 32 on the river Great Ouse. I had her for 4 years and it has served as an introduction into boating but im getting a bit bored of river cruising. The mooring fees are getting silly up to 2200k this year and river licence on top aswell. I have done a fair ammount of sailing now and I have to say I prefer it and im seriously thinking about selling my boat and buying a sail boat.
I live in Hertfordshire so the south coast is a bit far away so im looking at Southend direction. Would this area be ok for a beginner? Is there plenty to see? What kind of prices are you looking at for mooring?
I look forward to hearing from you.
