Listening to the idea having more electric points etc, who is going to look after them? will this be the BW bod who we wish would be chasing licence evaders and people who over stay on moorings such as one that has left a 48 hour mooring today, they had been there for 2 - 3 months.
Thinking about long term, the tow path shufflers will enjoy the electric being laid on, and there are laws about how much you can charge for a unit of electric! the vandals will have something more to break/wreck, boaters mooring pins might be a problem, like Julian our mooring pins on NB Daisybob used to be tank recovery pins yes tank as in a big tank. The pins are about 3ft long with and eye at the top. And yes if I am mooring and using them they will be hammered so they are all the way in.( I use a club hammer 2lb,they still go in). Why do we need these power supplies, as Sue and several others agree boats are becomming to hi tech, an early email was saying about moving a further few yards? to get a better reception on the TV? Is BW charging £5.00 because the electric has been supplied to a post that you can connect to if you want to? or are they saying BW will charge you £5.00 for the electric you use, which as I mentioned above might be Illegal because there is a set charge that can be levied on electric. Im not adverse to change when its for the better but Im not sure this for the better. But I still can not understand how BW can charge on the LLang/// I know someone said about an Act, had BW contacted NABO and the such, I feel it is still wrong and its sets a precedent. People making comments about other stretches of water, you may laugh but if this goes without challenging where will it go next?
