[marshman]

Plenty of room in the Broad and you can row ashore!!

See how useful tenders can be and its free mooring!!!

[CambridgeCabby]

£3 for a tender 

[Andrewcook]

CAMBRIDGECABBY, you've got to be joking £3 for a Tender that's only £2 short of a motor  Motor Cruiser. I bet Griff be there for this Ranworth Beer Festival in August. What's the betting? Will you be there Cambridgecabby?

[CambridgeCabby]

I’ll be here on Friday for the opening day 

[Gracie]

Moor round at south walsham and walk. Not so sure getting back would be quite so easy though.

£3.00? I think this is if the dinghy has an outboard motor it’s £3.00, row boats I thought were free? No one helps me with the ropes or offers to help me in or out when I row over, also none of the obligatory shouting of completely ridiculous instructions, on what the so called harbour master/s of the broad “thinks” should be done, though it is fun watching and listening 🤔. Not too sure if boat handling experience was a prerequisite for the position?

I will check and confirm today

how about a paddle board, head over, get off drag it out of the water onto the grass, then its not moored. I can see a big argument developing if they try and charge you when its not in the water.

It just highlights the stupidity of all of the charges, and how they think they can get away with riding roughshod over the poor boaters.

[MargeandParge]

That's provoked a thought do they charge to launch canoes inflatables paddle boards or dingies?

[CambridgeCabby]

I think people who got Tender Boats are better off coming on to Ranworth's stay as the Staith will be full up over those few days, Including Cambridgecabby being there drinking at Dry lol.
