Get them off the roads

[lanason]

It seems that the country's Motorways are filled by Haulage companies moving Boats - I've seem loads over the last few days M5 / M6 / M42 etc - Raggies, Flybridge, sports cruisers, displacement - all sorts.

Now cant you guys keep your boats in the water and not move em by road cus I'm gunna have an accident trying to rubber neck a good look, as I overtake.

Well thats part of the problem - how can I have a good look on a busy motorway without risking life and limb.

But I think there was a F37, Colvic Northerner, couple of 28 foot Regal/Searay thingys that all look the same to me, and of course the raggies (not a clue about makes)

Yeh, loads on the M20 most days,the red diesel price hike has'nt happened yet has it?

think some with boats realise that its cheaper, or same price, to pay to have your boat moved than go on a "normal" holiday. Lot to be said for it, you still have your own space, your beloved boat, and new places to go. Having done this i can highly recommend it.

Driving down the M5 between Gloucester and Exeter yesterday I noticed 6 ribs and what looked like a racing monohull all travelling North. Seemed strange as I'd have though they were more likely to be going the other way. Still, all the more room for us /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif
Mind you they probably saw the forecast. Been foul today, horizantle drizzle. Never mind, atleast the boat is in the water now./forums/images/icons/smile.gif
