Take a look at http://www.cbyc.co.uk/club/clubfees.html
It's not totally secure... we have had some thefts from boats and some cars were broke into a month ago.

Thanks for the comments, I think the club definitely offers a good level of security and value, it works out a lot less expensive that the marina's, would need a Gold berth which I'm told are the only berths with electric, a must for my boat. I have been told that these Gold berths having a waiting list to get on. Any forumites on a Gold ?

Its easy for thieves to approach any of the river marinas by boat and the further you get up the Ely the more vulnerable you are likely to be. But then there have been cases of thefts from boats in Penarth marina or so I am told.
Only problem we have had ( gold pontton at cbyc) was some fellow who swapped his old instrument covers for ours. It was so trivial I didnt even report it.

Chris...second cheeky post of the day!
Cardiff Marina has extremely sophisticated security system with 24 hour coverage and night vision etc. I would be happy to show you how this works to provide comfort. In two years we hve only had one theft with the system (and caught two thieves).
