Either the Wash or Skegness must have moved since I remember boating from Kings Lynn many years ago! It's those shifting sands I suppose.
How much is your mooring??

Not sure if this is a fair comparrison but we pay £950 for a 25ft cruiser. We are inland at Lincoln though and well serviced/maintained pontoons with water and electricity to each one with 24hr security guards.

I pay £ 920 for an East coast swinging mooring. This covers a professionally laid and maintained mooring, tender parking, car parking, showers and toilets, winter storage either ashore or on a pontoon. Only extras are the craning and any other boatyard work, such as mast lowering. Oh, yes - they have just started to charge for moving the boat to and from the mooring.

Paid £85 last year. We own the mooring gear so just pay for it laying, recovering and storage. 23 ft mobo on the Fal.

Drying club mooring < £90 for a 24 footer in Portsmouth harbour, but I have to maintain it or have it maintained - averaging £70 a year so far. Ain't life a bitch!

It depends on what you mean. In our part of the loch, we all have our own individual moorings, laid and maintained by ourselves, or a contractor. We have to be regisrered with the Crown Estate, and pay the queen something like £40 a year. Well, she needs it, you see.

[Pedant mode on] Actually, to be correct, the Queen does not get any money. Under the Crown Estate Act, all of the surpluses ( profit seems to be too sordid a concept! ) from the Crown Estates goes to the Treasury. Each new Monarch has the option to continue with this arrangement or to opt to keep the surplus for themselves. If they surrender the surpluses during their reign, they receive the Civil list instead. Keeping the cash would be a much better deal!!!
