BelgianExile Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Hi all. As per the title, we’re looking for a mooring anywhere between Brundall and Norwich (we’re in Thorpe St Andrew). I’ve tried most of the larger ones already (Bells etc), but are there any other options? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea14Ian Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Could try Cove Brundall. Not sure if any available, but give David a call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoggy Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 There's a few boats up for sale at wroxham marine (down griffin lane in thorpe, they started out in wroxham(sheerline yard)) so could be space there in the near future, there's no leccy but the quay edge is ok, worth having a word with the guys down there.

I can't seem to find a website for Wroxham Marine, only Sheerline for new boats ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoggy Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Same phone number, they don't have a marina website as moorings are more of a sideline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks - we did pop down there and I also emailed them but no reply. And no leccy has been vetoed by the Mrs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshman Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Petrol? Don't forget no one sells petrol on the Broads except I believe, Martham. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, already factored that in! Looking for a mooring with decent vehicle access if possible for that reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure you can park a private articulated petrol tanker near a mooring ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The driver would likely be kidnapped before you got near the mooring. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BelgianExile Posted October 19, 2021 Author Share Posted October 19, 2021 Am sorted, found a lovely spot between the Yare View Holiday Cottages and the Ferry House courtesy of John at Willow Marine. Less than 10 minutes from my house and a cracking spot, if slightly rustic! All I need now is the boat - arrives Thursday, all being well.
