536,- Euros a berth for 40' cat in Inkoo, swinging mooring would be free of charge if you provide your own buoy ( I just guess because no one uses them) /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
I have to pay the Crown Estate £70 a year to rent the sea bed for my mooring, and no, they do not provide a water-taxi for that. The local moorings company are offering to carry out an inspection in the spring for £130 plus VAT.
Really? I pay CHC £160 rental for my DIY B3 mooring. Local yard rents drying moorings at around £400 a season, and I believe Conservancy B3 drying moorings are about £360. Waiting lists for all of them cos the marinas got greedy and set a hefty minimum charge for smaller boats.
It seems the UK is not only a tax paradise better than monti carlo and Zurich but a paradise for cheep moorings!
My charges will or should have arrived perhaps tommorow when i retern to France ill find a demand for 2800€ ?? Last year it was 2680€ but it always gets more expensive and StTropez is the least expensive port,well almost.
Thats for a boat up to 7m30 or 8m30?? Forgoten untill i get the letter
If only the weather was better in the UK. Cheap moorings no tax free health care and £500 pm for anyone that hasent got time to work?? Or hasent got any work??
Ah well, if you want a Marina berth in the Solent, you do need megabucks. Thats why theres a roaring trade round here in second hand dinghies!
Cheapest Solent AFAIK is Langstone where you can lay your own mooring for under £100. That is downstream of the main sewer outfall, and the boat needs to be fortified against the depredations of the yoof from Flea Park.
I wouldnt be publicising that price too much Fergus, its £3800 pa for a swinger on Beaulieu river for our boat - and we are only 20miles from you !! /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
Its 3k between the piles on the same stretch of water, only about 10miles from T-K's £600 on the Hamble. /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
Just come to realise how seriously expensive it is, but there again its a lovely location.
