Yarmouth Harbour

[Sticky Fingers]

First time I've seen stern too Med style in UK but it makes sense. How does it cope with the tides current?

I guess we’ll find out. Got well set lines from every boat plus some shore lines.

 

[Sticky Fingers]

Have you not found my next boat yet ?

I’m waiting for inspiration. I was gutted that the Portofino fell.

Haha! Yes that’s me!!

I was going to say the same!

We always moored stern too if not alongside as our work deck and crane were aft.

Love Yarmouth but it is now more expensive that Lymington and Ocean Village! Lymington has better facilities and service and Ocean Village has always been overpriced! I will be spending more time on the hook... ?

Always good news when folk avoid Yarmouth

Good enough.

Are they doing ‘conventional’ rafting on the visitors moorings?

 

[Sticky Fingers]

Oh yes. Max 4. It was very busy last night.

stern to bow to minimise contact.

Nope. It’s been completely fine. Second night now. All good.

I'm surprised. I would have thought that on the ebb everyones stern lines would have held against the current, on the flood, stern fenders come into play.

Yes. A single boat moored stern to without the benefit of an adjacent boat, would be wayward at the bow especially, but that’s not how it’s done.
