Mooring delight

[gaylord694]

Over the moon as I've I've just been advised I've a mooring in Dartmouth....... Is there a water taxi service available and if so can you get a season ticket for it ?

Yes to the water taxi. Give Dart harbour a call as they are very helpful.

Car parking is the big problem in Dartmouth. I'm up river in Dittisham on a swinging mooring which I much prefer.

It is a reliable service but with very limited hours of service in wnter up to the end of March. There is parking at Darthaven Marina at a reasonable cost or on the raod up to the castle. There are a few spots in town but as household parking is at a premium locals may get a bit uptight at their parking spots being taken. They used to do a 20 journey card but have discomtinued that so currently it is £2 a trip inner zone and £4 outer zone.
I have just moved from a mooring as the wind funneled very strongly (over winter) where I was, what area of the river are you going to be?

How long does it take to get a mooring in Dartmouth? It sounds like you will be having a party to celebrate ? Is it tidal or full access? I had made some enquiries previously of Noss marina but what options exist otherwise? Do you have tidal issues with moorings /

 

[gaylord694]

Oh yes I shall definitely be celebrating I think the water taxi is going to be very busy !

I read the title as "Morning delight". I though to myself "it's just like afternoon delight, but in the morning".

Congratulations. We will be round over the summer and be in the pub at Dittisham if you want to meet up for a beer.

Bought a 29 ft boat at Kingswear in around 1975. Paid to use a fore and aft mooring for three weeks on the river. It cost more than a full year's dues for my 50ft boat to use any of the Shetland Council's harbours/piers.
