Not that you’d ever generalise anybody eh 🤦🏻‍♂️

Moaning when the grass isn’t cut, moaning when someone is travelling to a place to cut the grass. Jeez 🙄

Cue the CRT bashing

Employers are also telling employees to come to work even if they have covid saying it’s no longer a requirement to isolate. Yep I know!

No the U.K. is the new Covid hotspot. People aren’t isolating when they have it so are spreading it.

Correct it’s for mooring for up to 24hrs

I’m alright Jack f*** others grand children

There always tends to be a water shortage when there’s not much rain……simple really!

I’ve got a great idea. Why don’t you phone some marinas and ask for their weekly rate 🤭

Sorry I didn’t mean Richmond I meant Kingston. Say Abingdon is 3 days free. Others you’ll have to pay. Many you can moor up in fields with no charge (just before Wallingford bridge for example). Also some after Wallingford bridge but are under trees. I’d say upper Thames is mainly field moorings with no charge. Beware of the killer cows at Leachlade (those that know know!)

Plenty of Moorings at Richmond, Windsor, Shepperton, Henley, Goring, Abingdon and more than enough past Osney as most cruisers can’t get under the bridge. You can also moor at many rural places such as fields etc. If leaving the boat I’d phone a few lock keepers as many have mooring available or leave it at a marina. You may/will have to pay at many of these places. As for anchoring in a river overnight , Hmm not sure I’d advise of that. You need to display an anchor light if you do and you may still fall foul of the EA

Are you for real? If you must know my wife recently died and whilst you weren’t to know that comment is the sort that drags this forum down and maybe you should have a little thought before posting bile. Reported to mods

Oh well that’s you. I’m happy for them to help. They give their time for free. Something I guess many of the critic’s have never even thought about!

Nope never had a problem but as a single handed boater I’m just glad for the help tbh

I phoned up PRM (or whoever the manufacturer is) about using Synthetic oil in a PRM 150 and they said no definitely needs to be mineral

Just point the light towards the roof. That’s what you want to see anyway not what’s up head as you know that, a long tunnel!

Standards are set from the top by leaders. Unfortunately the ones at the top show no leadership and are full of self entitlement and rules dont apply to us. This then filters down to society. I was always taught a leaders lowest standard is the subordinates highest standard.

Elite to a person can be dependent on budget. Like cars. Who are the elite car builders? Range Rover, Aston Martin, Bentley? Probably all elite builders but then look at cost of them

Yes they are still there and they are blue. When you go into the locks on the River Trent the lock keepers take your registration number. Some also ask when your license runs out.

What are you on about. It’s simple. If you do not have a license with CraftInsure under their T&C’s your insurance if invalid. I don’t get what you can’t understand about that

You can get insurance without demonstrating you have a license at purchase, however for the insurance to be valid you have to have a license.

Another pointless thread 🥱

Strange how someone has an own goal yet it’s CRT’s fault!

Got to be a Victron……end of message 😂

The clues in the “I’m no electrician”. Maybe employ one before you do irreversible damage
