I think he means the vast majorities' total inability to moor their
boats in a manner that is compatable with other users moving at their
normal speed.
Again I make it quiet clear that I see a difference
between "overnight mooring" with pins etc. and permenant moorings.
IF long term moorers or their landlords can not provide adequte
mooring points AND ensured that the boats are correctly secured, then
either BW should do it for them and charge handsomely for it, or the
mooring permits should be withdrawn.
This is not about speeding, it is about trying to manouver any form
of boat on idle for mile after mile (thats how it feels), especially
with a bit of wind.
Note - I do not append a smiley, I think the whole matter of securing
boats on "on line" moorings needs sorting out.
Here we go again :-) Now a smiley

BW are one of the worst offenders, they moor their own boats with string,
quite often where they are in the way and on the South Oxford there is a
long length of long term BW moorings with no mooring facilities at all,
the moorers use pins put right in the edge of the bank as the tow path
runs close to the cut
