Hi Im currently based in a Marina, and would like to buy or rent land or similar in the area, either alone or with a group, for mooring. I can imaging finding suitable land and getting mooring permission is difficult otherwise everyone would do it. Can anyone offer advice of the best place to start please. Thanks for any help offered. And if you are interested in this also please let me know, particularly if you might be interested in looking for a location as a group. Mark

As the time draws closer for my ex to sell the house and let me have some dosh comes closer I have gone from purposeful browsing and and info gathering to "Could I live on this boat?". Am seriously looking at an ex hire boat called Sphynx http://www.norburywharfltd.co.uk/boats-for-sale/ I would hav to move the inside about a bit to get it as I want it but can do that in stages. My immediate concern is that it says "Insulation: Unknown" in the brochure. I am only mildly concerned about the hull as it appears to have been very well cared for by the company. Does anyone know anything about this boat or Dartline boats in general? I want to go an have a look at her at some point soon. But she is the first Narrow boat where I could actually "see" myself owning her. That's why I am being cautious. My "professional" instincts are normally spot on. Otherwise....well...I married the ex!!! lol! Info, Thoughts, Opinion and the normal abuse welcome! lol!

Hello, I am new to boating and need advice about my first buy; I viewed a widebeam in mid July with the specifications listed below; I was about to have a survey done but got distracted by other boats; now about a month and a half later I am surprised to see that such boat is still available and hasnt been snapped up yet; I was thinking of having it surveyed now but the fact that a boat of that price and age hasnt been sold in 1.5 months makes me wonder what other potential buyers have been put off with Any advice gratefully received Regards Annalisa Price: £55,000 Designer: Paul Widdowson Builder: Allen Unwin Make: Paul Widdowson Model: 45 Widebeam Year constructed: 2010 Berths: 4 Engine : Barrus Shanks 35 HP (has done 2300 hours) Fuel type: Diesel Drive type: Shaft drive Length overall: 45' Beam: 10' Hull material: Steel Fuel capacity: 400 Litres Water capacity: 2500 Litres Walkthrough bathroom with cassette toilet and shower Multi fuel stove with back boiler providing heating to 2 radiators, gravity fed Hot water provided by calorifier or immersion heater. 8x6v 135ah batteries. 3kw pure sign wave sterling ch/inv.12 and 230v systems LED lighting Fully fitted kitchen including full size cooker, fridge and sink Washing machine

Hi folks, Could anyone please offer recommendations for solicitors who are savvy with the purchase/sale of freehold land with mooring/riparian rights attached to it? To be clear, we are not looking here for advice on the ins and outs of such 'rights' or use of the land, we have already exchanged ample spoken and written communications with respective entities including the Environment Agency, the current land owner and the Council/planning department. So I would just kindly ask that people keep responses in the area of names for solicitors. I only ask as I know that boating forum'ers are so often keen to offer their ample experience and knowledge in, usually, the most helpful of ways but we are already plenty benefited by the transfer of such wisdom and in this case just needing some straightforward recommendations of quality legal representation to do the bits we would otherwise find a headache *Note*, we are not, in fact, looking to live on the land or to moor as 'residential' Many thanks in advance, Chris. Ps. If anyone does want to ask questions about what we're up to please feel free to PM me.
