Things get
really easy when people have a skipper with them as they are professionals and
are aware of all the best mooring posts that are available on the different
routes. But people who are sailing on their own will face difficulties during
their trip if they do not have anything planned beforehand. If you are thinking
that just knowing about the location of the nearby marinas is enough for you
then you are highly mistaken.
Renting The Berth
The size and
shape of every boat differ from the other so even if there is berthing space
available at the marina that you are visiting, there is no guarantee that it
will be able to accommodate your boat. This is why it is always advised to rent
the canal boat moorings services in
advance. Even if you are planning on staying for a night advance booking is the
smart thing to do. Such short term berthing solutions offered by the marinas is
called visitor berthing services.
Factors To Consider
It is highly
common among people to choose visitor berthing services randomly because of the
short duration of the stay. But after sailing for the entire day if you cannot
get the required refreshments and a clean washroom where you can enjoy a warm
shower then you will not feel energised the next day. So even if you are going
to stay for a single night you must consider factors like canal boat mooring fees, refreshments, facilities, maintenance,
staff, Wi-Fi, and also the location of the berths.
