MOORINGS
Most residential marinas in our area have secure accessible pontoons, mains water at a charge of £2.50 per week and mains electricity at normal cost per unit with a separate meter to each vessel. BT provide the telephone connections at their usual rates and Broadband is also available. We have often noted that there are children and there are animals. BUT there are no problems with children and there are no problems with animals. A well-laid out car-park includes allocated spaces for each boat and adequate extra spaces for visitors. Post is addressed to you at the Marina and collected at the office. There are adequate clean wheeled bins, emptied regularly by the council. 24 hour CCTV operates and the car-ways and walk-ways are well-lit. · Moorings fees are usually £1.10 per foot length of boat per week, paid four-weekly in advance. · Council Tax is Band A the cheapest Band and in Medway this is only £792 a year. If you are on your own, with single persons discount, this is only £594 for the full year.

Continuity of Moorings

Usually we find that a boat sold on any mooring will be able to stay by arrangement between the new owner and the Marina,subject to references and approval. But, for the buyer, it is always your responsibility to introduce yourself and confirm all arrangements, including those above, prior to purchase


All vessels are offered and all deposits accepted subject to the standard terms and conditions of the C.B.S.Y.B. (Certified Bonded Ship and Yacht Brokers www.CBSYB.com)

While boats are usually able to remain on their existing mooring, it is the reponsibility of buyers to approach the mooring owner and establish what mooring is available to them for that boat (references may be required)prior to entering into a binding contract.
