Commercial Moorings

Applicants for these waiting lists must have a genuine, fully operational business which is their main source of income or which has employee(s). The vessel must be primarily used for the business, with appropriate insurance and coding, and we may ask to see proof that the business is active and viable, e.g. website, business plan etc. If your business does not meet these requirements then you may loose your place on the waiting list.

Priority on waiting list

Boats that are not fitted or provided with any kind of internal combustion engine / generator / auxiliary engine (i.e. electric boats, hydrogen boats etc) have a waiting list priority. Does this apply to you?
Our walk-ashore moorings have a waiting list priority for local people who live within walking distance (2000m) of the berth. Note that this only applies to your main residence, not to a second home. If you do not live in walking distance of this mooring, then you are still welcome to apply for the waiting list, but you will be on the waiting list around 2 years longer than a local person. If your circumstances change, you must let us know, or you risk losing your place on the waiting list.
Please note that we will check you / your boat meet these requirements when assigning your mooring. Please inform us if your circumstances change. You may forfeit your place on the waiting list if you apply for an inappropriate priority.
