Hi Coolcat Not so sure about that I am old enough to remember pitch battles between Mods and Rockers at Great Yarmouth,Clacton and Blackpool. Ray

I totally agree with removing these people and terminating there hire but for many reading this thread it needs to be put into perspective . I have holidayed on the Broads every year for the past fifty years and accepted for one occasion in about 1970 when a couple on a small two birth boat spent the entire night violently arguing encountered any real anti social behaviour from other boaters I do regularly moor at Norwich and the trouble there is from residents of the city screaming and shouting along Riverside Road Ray

Hi Trevor Like you hired many times from Aston's both London and Beccles I do know at one time they where owned or partly owned by the Prior family Jim Prior was for a long while MP for Lowestoft Ray

I love cruising the Wroxham-Coltishall stretch in the still of early morning There is nothing to hate about being on the Broads Ray

Hi Simon Are you OK it is the shock that gets you Ray

Hi Simon I have done Southern Rivers on my own twice on Pacific Dawn Had a good time on both occasions Have a great holiday Ray

Hi Simon Hope you have a great holiday Are you cruising single handed Ray

In the Broads Authority planning list the application for mooring craft in Jenner's Basin has been withdrawn. Therefore it is reasonable to assume no permission to moor now exists Ray

thingamybob states in his first post he as removed emblem and registration number

I agree Ferry Pioneer Nice boat

You can moor at the Yacht station it is before Old Bridge then 15 minute stroll into town Ray

May 1964 Jack Powles Rippling Foam you needed three hands to helm it when mooring one each for wheel,motor bike style throttle and gear stick which was direct, great memories

According to notices displayed at the moorings it is eight pound to moor overnight 5.30pm until 11.30am and four pound to moor for lunch stop 11.30am until 5.30pm payable to Warden Ray

Hi Roy I agree I think you are right with the boat and name Ray

My five are Geldeston Wherry Inn Somerleyton Langley Dyke Irstead Rockland Stathie

We hired from Powles throught the late sixties and into the seventies and at that Time as Buffalo Bill states they had yards on both sides of the river. Where the houses are now on the Wroxham side they used Primarly for Building and repair and where Barnes are now was the original Powles Hire fleet yard later they also used the Collins old yard on the Wroxham side when owned by Pennant Ray

Carole Totally agree with your post This forum as found me friends who I know i will never lose Ray

I agree I have never seen parishoners long term moor there Last Summer 3 or 4 boats moored there most of the summer I think 1 was moved on by BA as unlicensed a couple of yachts plus one small cruiser have been there most of the winter But i noticed on Sunday at least one had an enforcement notice on it Unable to read detail notice was river side

Had a walk round The moorings this morning and noticed that they now have the Standard Broads Authority 24 hour Mooring Signs up usual maximum 24 hour stay no return within 24 hours Also at least one of the yachts there had a notice attached to it Hopefully the others will also be removed I thought these moorings where Parish Council not Broads Authority I therefore assume some agreement as been reached between them Ray

Happy birthday Grendel Hope you have had a good day Ray

Can a mod lock this thread and start two new ones Royals and Silver line and transfer Hull Painting posts to thread all ready started Then everyone should be happy no posts lost and in relevant threads Ray
