We've just bought a 'new' boat; a bit of a filler really whilst we have this baby and take 2 years off family cruising.
Anyway we got it from Andy Seedhouse in Woodbridge and it needs a berth; turns out Granary boatyard on the Deben have a pontoon berth (4 hours either side of HW with our draft) and the cost is £45 per month with leccy and water. So I ask Andy about getting the boat there "It's only across town so give James a tenner and he'll take the mast down and take the boat round for you". Then I ask Granary about putting it in the water "we'll crane it in for £20".
That's delivery and a launch for £30 from some really nice chaps and 6 months pontoon berth for £270 at a decent boatyard. Only on the East Coast.
