On the ongoing search for moorings

on May 30, 2011

Our ongoing search for long term moorings continues.

We’d love to be in Little Venice – but that’s us and every other boater out there!

This mornings search on Apollo Duck, which seems to be the biggest source of available boats  - although I’m not so sure about moorings, came up with:

This didn’t inspire, however, the same kind of despondency as the British Waterways moorings search:

Beginning to really feel the urgency of this – it’s half term – we have just a few weeks to resolve moorings and schools for next academic year.

When they said slow your life down, move onto a boat, I had no idea that ‘slow’ meant ‘grinding halt’.

I am having a word with myself: we have a roof over our heads and a lifestyle to die for, a daily adventure and two very happy children who would be delighted to carry on exactly as we are.

My fear is that dropping out of the system completely will seriously hamper their future, and I remain concerned about their schooling and opportunities for the future. That said, Wokingham have been amazing over allowing the children to not only stay in their schools, but to allow us some degree of secondary school choice.

So today we’re out seeing if word of mouth is the better way to go.
