    Why don't they paint the whole length of the rails with white paint wouldn't take more than a couple of gallons surly the cost cant be that high and if the rail end was shamford instead of a butt joint they wouldn't jam when they expand.John

    Painting the rails white is the biggest B/S excuse ive ever heard. A champhered  end would make no difference to expansion and contraction of rails, 60ft or LWR

    I also wonder what railtrack could do about it to stop them if someone decided to cool down the rails with a powerful hose from their boat?

    It would never work mate as the problem isnt on the bridge its for a couple of miles either side of the bridges, it would need a mighty long hose to cool that lot off.

    There is a moral here though buy a boat that that is broads friendly.

    You can ruin someone's day by being drunk and annoying without a boat.

    People can be annoyed by others who are stone cold sober just easy if not easier

    Spot on. I believe it to be the people  not the booze.

    Its a bit like the ban guns brigade, its not the gun that kills some one it the person pulling the trigger.  Alcohol doesnt give people the attitude its the person themselves. Right just off up the pub for breakfast ................

  9. The yacht station is a commercial venture, (yes owned by BA) but in all commercial ventures, profit is what its all about. There is no real reason to arrive at Great Yarmouth at low tide to moor up. Many just time things right and sail straight through it. In over 45 years of coming to the broads I have never once moored there.

    You know for a moderator you can be overly confrontational at times! I wouldn't call your reply rubbish, but I will correct you.

    If you feel that strongly about me please feel free to hit the report button

  10. In answer to what I think was your original question. The answer is NO, the moorings at Reedham in the days before a mooring attendant was stationed there, people got on with it and helped each other. In those day there was the added coaster traffic and far more hire boats.
