the boat coming in to moor, towing a dinghy, seems to be a Herbert Woods Delight, in varnish.
it has the look of a delight, but the back deck is curved not flat and I dont see the steering quadrant that a delight would have on the back deck.

Isnt that where the electric post is though, so understandable if they wanted an electric hookup.

You might like to look at this, then:
https://www.broads-society.org/post/the-state-of-the-broads-in-the-family-of-national-parks
Good to see that The Broads Society are promoting the Notional Park as a National Park.
already read that one, very reminiscent of a loofa.

perhaps- just maybe if the Broads Authority are no longer sending letters and using emails instead it could make sense. Otherwise it just seems to be petty vindictiveness..
and to give no explanation why lacks common courtesy.
I do admit i snorted into my coffee when I read
"the two organisations share many common aims - primarily the desire to promote the Broads as a premier destination for sailing and boating."
Really? since when have the broads Authority displayed the desire to promote the broads for sailing and boating, it always seems they want rid of all the pesky boaters.

Has Elsewhere flooded yet ?
not sure- lets find it on a map. well it seems most are cafes, there is one (an estate agent) that is temporarily closed, near the river thames- so the answer has to be - maybe

At Alkham where we hold our Astronomy meetings they have been pumping into tankers and taking the water away since early december, its an operation that has been running 24/7 since they started, at first they had several tankers and were filling up as fast as possible then taking elsewhere to empty (its a low point in the valley so nowhere lower to pump to) now they just have 2 tankers, still taking it turn and turn about to fill up and empty elsewghere, unfortunately this operation blocks over half of the parking at the village hall, making it more difficult.

the sea was like a duck pond!
small, round, flat and full of ducks, with the odd shopping trolley handle poking out of the water?

but as outsiders not knowing the particular boaters involved and their apparent previous behaviour 99% of people will still say that the anglers behaviour was not justified, since only a select few seem to know those involved and considering the name and shame policy of this forums TOS may I suggest we calm down and just agree that social media is not the place to expect action to stop this type of behaviour.
it has been intimated that those involved are setting themselves above the law to resolve this- but the truth is that most of the people watching this vide wont know that. So lets not get into any arguments here as by all reports that is exactly the sort of thing the people who posted this to youtube thrive upon.

from what I could see they have broken a bylaw by interfering with a vessel mooring, and that is clear evidence of that act..

surely the course of action would be to send the video to the Broads Authority to deal with, rather than just posting on youtube, where it will undoubtedly get views and comments, but wont get any action taked by those who have the authority to do so.

I have read somewhere recently that this is indeed the case- it was a report on the affect the flooding has had on local businesses- and also mentioned Martham boats and phoenix fleet amongst others.

that must explain the chaos I see on the road, if you are just around the next corner
