Although we now have a mooring my wife and I have spent the last ten years travelling and trading on the canals. We would like to say that even though we are now a little more static we support your aims. Our view is that all boaters should be free to enjoy the waterways in the same way that we have been able to do. It seems particularly wrong that the waterways authority are consistantly refusing to specify the distance which boaters should move in order to comply with licence conditions. Our view is that this is just a form of bullying.
Good luck to you.
Mac and Pam.
