Also see if there's two multiplug connections! I've been caught out by this before - there's sometimes an extended harness between the multiplug from the engine and the multiplug from the control panel. It depends how the engine installation was done.

40 minutes?! SLOW DOWN! What stops you doing Hurleston on a Nantwich to Ellesmere Port trip? Turn left ...

Paying for a mooring is a pretty good definition of "such longer period as is reasonable in the circumstances."

Are you expecting our government to make a sensible choice having considered the ramifications? You must be new here ...

Yes this. I worked for BTR Dunlop many years ago and they chose to self insure their vehicle fleet. I think that at the time they needed to keep £10 million in an escrow account, which was obviously peanuts to a big corporate organisation. The director who suggested it got quite a nice bonus when they'd totted up the savings on the open insurance market! There may have been further underwriting of the risks, but a ten million quid excess tends to keep premiums down 😁

It's in the 1995 Act as being one of the conditions of a licence Check your insurance covers your needs ... Third party liability cover is required, added cover is available for a price. Or make sure you have deep enough pockets in the event of a problem.

Not in those exact words no. They said "You must provide insurance details, we may check the insurance is valid." You said "I agree" or ticked a checkbox indicating you agree. Prior consent.

By agreeing to the Ts & C's you have given prior consent.

7.3. When You apply for a Licence You must provide the name of Your insurance company, the policy number and expiry date. We may ask for a copy of the certificate or policy schedule. 7.4. After the Boat is Licensed, We may request a copy of the insurance policy or schedule. We may check with Your insurer that the policy is valid. We may also give information We hold about Your Boat to Your insurance company. From the Private Boat licence terms and conditions

Do they? I have to provide them the name of my insurer, the policy number and the expiry date. I assume they use these to check ...

I put external flaps on mine for a rough crossing to stop waves coming into the well deck. Nothing fancy - a bit of milk carton plastic, top hinged with gaffer tape - to reduce water intake from waves but allow water out (mostly) as usual. I don't think I'd want them sealed watertight though!

You obviously haven't met some of the "plumbers" I know ...

Tuckeys or Bowern ... He'd be there same day!

Well yes, as you are well aware and have discussed previously. I do suspect a higher proportion of hmers voted to surcharge ccers than ccers did! Not sure about that. In the unlikely event that all responses said "Go on, add another ten percent, we don't mind" CRT would probably have gone that route.

Doesn't matter if you or I agree, most of the hmers voted in favour so it's what we get!

Yeah, which is why I specified an NAA marina. I'm trying to explain the simple case first, not all the wrinkles. If I wanted a mooring this year it would be £800 all in.

£3000 mooring in a NAA marina, CRT get 9% => £270. On a £1080 cc licence, the (eventual) 25% surcharge is £270

Mine is due next week so I've been checking! There's a lookup tool on the licencing portal and for a licence starting in April it ups the price 5% if you select no home mooring. I get away with it this year because mine runs March-February.

Yes, it is.

That's a shock to those of us discussing stuff with him just before Christmas last year!

It's either the beginning of the end or the end of the beginning!
