Any berth holders planning to open the 2002/3 bill would be well advised to sit down and have a strong, cup of tea or G&T (according to religious belief, person preference and/or time of day) to hand first.

My increase at an MDL marina is around 6%.

My wife has declared mutiny on this and I dare say we shall be voting with our seaboots!

Then there\'s

The new "out of the water" deal which also costs plus the lift in/out plus extortionist electricity prices.

When we left Port Hamble LAST year I calculated that I would otherwise have been spending around£4700 for our 30footer for the 01-02 season with the boat going in in April.
I thought then that it was time to go so we did.

Cost for a 30 footer in Kalamaki Athens, Gouvia Corfu, Nazare Portugal, Villamoura, = (around) £1758 ALL IN!

But that nice John Watson (not the ex racing driver) seems so reasonable in this months edition of MBM, surely you must all be mistaken!!!!

BTW he gives his tel no for those not happy, says compliments and complaints about even. Hmmmm.................

No across the board figure, each boat has been re-measured but my increase is about 7%. Some at Hamble Piont are much worse.

Re: Then there\'s

There's also Scandinavia for those who want delightful sailing in a lovely climate and at a reasonable cost.

Total berthing, wintering and craneage for one year for a 15 ton 40 foot yacht - £1,245.67 (and its gets cheaper as the Euro drops).

Cold comfort for those of us on the waiting list for a berth! Means we are probably nearer on the waiting list with more leaving but about to suffer when we get it.
