Looks like we may have found a new moorings at Acle Dyke that will allow us to use the boat throughout the year

Went to take a look today and it seems to tick all the boxes so will keep you all posted

Not just one George.........it's plumb in the middle between the Acle Bridge Inn and The Ferry Inn at Stokesby

Default Shore power

Shore power on a mooring is so important. It makes such a difference to keeping a dry and cosy boat. Alas the...er....clowns in our harbour trust decided not to put shore power on our new pontoons. 'We can do it later!' Aye, that will be right!

A modern pontoon shoukd have access to water and electricity!

Go for it Geoff, worth paying extra.

Cheers Chris,

The only thing we've got to get used to is parking in such close proximity to other boats.....don't want to be playing dodgems
