Mammon Rules the Waves

Read about one boater's (Mortimer Bones) anguish (both practical and moral) caused by the new tender-for moorings experiment here .

I lived in a marina for 3 years and don't want to again (this is partly what BW is trying to encourage). My boat is self sufficient and I don't want to pay for the upkeep of a massive car park which I won't use. I also don't want to look out of the window every morning in my A.M. semi-conscious state...and see my next door neighbor, centimeters away, looking back at me! Hardly the point of living on a boat if you ask me when I can be at one with the fish and the birds.



A typical canal boat in 10 years time?
