It was a single owner. Some moorers have not paid mooring fees for a number of years and some moorers have arrived there without any permission from the owner. Mooring fees are low as they have not been increased for 9 years at least, so could be a large increase for existing moorers.

The freehold of the marina, whether that includes the business I do not know. Its all quite messy, no accounts, no addresses or contracts of many of the moorers and no details of any liabilities, the marina business has not been fully managed and consequently its all quite messy.

The marina had suffered from bad management at high level, there was no diesel, no coal, no gas, the elsan & pump out facility cess pit was not always emptied. The local harbourmasters kept it going as best they could be boats slowly left. It will take awhile for the marina to fill up again and restore its good reputation for any new investors and moorers.

There have been some posts regarding mooring at Brinklow Marina, the marina is now in the hands of the receivers

I have not got my deposit back yet but at least he says he will refund. By a more polite approach I was refering to some of the comments on this thread/board and in particular one calling him a scoundrel and a blaggard. Sorry I dont know how to include quotes but if you scroll back you will find the comment, which was made by someone who got their deposit back.

We had a reservation and paid a deposit to Barby Moorings but felt that due to the lack of progress at the marina that we couldnt take up our reservation and sent a short polite email to Tony explaining this and asking for a refund of our deposit which he promptly and politely replied too saying he completely understood and will return our deposit. Perhaps a more polite approach to Tony may resolve your problems. Jeepster
