Annie cariad Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 Moveing towards Chester and elsemere port what's the best place to moor at the port ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychalist Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 Short visit: top basin. Overnight: lower basin (apparently) - if you arrange that, you get museum entry included. Don't miss the Bolinder being fired up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's about £5 a night to moor there, but if you buy a museum ticket you get 1 night's mooring fee included. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bod Posted July 17, 2022 Report Share Posted July 17, 2022 Booked through C&RT's booking system, £10 per night in the lower basin, includes museum entry. However, you will need mooring pins, as there are NO rings or bollards, the actual advertised moorings are unmarked unlit, and some crossed by mooring ropes from "exhibits". Be sure to fill with water before going down as there is no water point in the basin, moor as far from the Holiday Inn air-con fans as possible. The museum is in a period of upheaval due to the moving of stored material, and exhibition re-arranging as of 5/7/22 our visit date. Beware of the top lock, the walls have a huge leak which sprays across the rear deck, as you go down. All this has been said to the museum, the staff are well aware of the problems. (even before I raised them) Bod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
