Have a great time Andy!
But really, don’t judge the southern Broads from mooring at Barney. We moored at Polkey’s Mill last year (between Barney and Reedham). I’d been really looking forward to mooring there. In the middle of nowhere, must be so peaceful. Trouble is, the tide is so strong there, and turns during the night (obviously) that we got a lot of bow slap. Not so peaceful!
My takeaway from that experience is to think twice before mooring anywhere further downstream than Reedham or St Olaves, and actually I’m not to sure of those two having moored up at both locations during the day and seen the rate that the tide streams by.
