Perhaps they are non-continual cruisers <g>. Possibly, as Sue implied in
her post, no doubt there is a good reason for for such temporary
arrangements (though the inclusion of the word 'permanent' is baffling).

What exercises me is that there appears to be no consistency in applying
the 'rules'. On one hand we have the bloke I met (and a perfectly nice
chap he is too) is able to buck the system because he 'knows' someone
and on the same stretch of the canal a local resident was fined for
leaving his boat in the visitors area for a couple of weeks (he has
a permanent mooring at a local marina) in the spring. Meanwhile, here is 
my chap with a friend who is taking up honey-pot mooring space on a wink 
in the high-point of the season.

Cheers,
