Thanks folks - the telegraph pole sounds like a great idea and thanks for mentioning the underwater protection bit too - I will crew some 2ft heavy duty bolts into the pole that'll sit under the water line - will post some pics once in situ

Thanks ever so much for everyone that kindly replied with tips and advice - much appreciated. So whilst I agree the logic of the bigger boat on the inside bankside the most sensible I'm going to go small boat inside - both lined up Sterns together both will have independent ropes to bank attached to scaffold poles driven 5ft into the ground with hat tops so ropes can't slip off - I will do the same Bow end and have tyres as fenders - I will attach both boats together too - is that sensible? Current water level to bank is 4ft and there will be small 6ft wide pontoon both ends of the smaller boat - these are floating option if level as leveles rise. I like the sound of the stout reflector board but have no idea what it is?

Hello hoping experienced river boat folk can advise me please.....we have 72ft river mooring and a 60ft and 40ft narrowboat and want to double moor them side by side not in a line....does the 60ft need to be closest to the bank and the 40ft the otherside or fine the other way around please? Both will have their Stern together so can hop from one to the other. Thanks in advance
