However you get all the mussels you can eat included in that price and really fresh too.
probably get a annual berth in central London St Kats for not much more than double that but not the free seafood.

Really? I'm at York marina and a 12m is just under £4k (less early payment discount) and last time I checked Hull marina was on a par BUT that was before Aquavista took it over.

It was around 3k a few months ago for my 10.8m cruiser, Hartlepool is similar.

What do you like about the Medway.

Sounds pretty good for a 12 metre boat and MDL facilities are normally excellent. Have you taken it?

Err ...........
12M on our club pontoon moorings is 1K per annum.
Diesel @ £1.20 per litre.
Facilities to do a annual lick and a promise regards anodes and A/F £45.00.
A clubhouse at the top of the companion way where a dinner and a pint could still be under £10.00.
Apart from having to put up with the odd Broom owner, think I might stay where I am and waste the other £5.500 on wine wimmin and song.
Ooo... and no que on sunny weekends to get into the lock.
Must admit if was to pick any marina on the Medway it would be MDL Chatham.
RCC are always looking for new members by the way .

A few years ago Hull Marina did a buy 5 and get one free on the visitor rates. But not since they rebranded as Aquavista.
I had no idea the permanent mooring charges were so high. It's not like the pontoons at Hull are anything special.
Here at Farndon the rates have increased but not at the scale you describe at Hull. However the unavoidable costs for mooring and river license remain a concern.

Have a suspicion that most of the private marina chains are simply small parts of some portfolio managed by some investment fund, using borrowed money, St Kats has been been bought and sold several times and displaying some impressive returns.
Our largest local independant marina has been undergoing considerable change, the marina not being the primary beneficiary.
All the council run harbours are probably now going to have to start paying their way as well.
