are you considering a move?
I think the new pontoons are priced too high and most will stay empty

Always keep options open, new grounds to pillage and all that
Jester your Jesting arnt you? more than one Jester...get them told
Mind i also noticed two Sappires, you Sunderland lads need to start opening your minds up more and picking different names

The Merryfisher is my old boat, and the other one of my old boats is an Explore Elite both named Jester...never quite got to a hat trick in Sunderland....
I see the moorings are £1980 with harbour dues on top of that for upto 24 feet ....bit steep for me, at Seaham its £1100, restricted fishing times with the dock gate, but for the £1000 saving and being 10 mins from my house i'll live with it...
I still like Sunderland Marina best though.....

Sunderland Marina suits me very well...
24/7 access to sea and from mooring to pier head 5 minutes .
gates, locks and a 30 minutes (6 knots) travel up river would annoy me too much...especially if I have no time and only want to fish one wreck for a couple of hours...
however, a big nuisance is that there is only a diesel and no petrol pump

still means, carrying stupid petrol canister on and off the boat all the time...would rather have a big 55l tank and fill it up cleanly whilst afloat and not messing around with funnels or leaky attachments.
i think Sunderland marina should provide that...just looking at how many outboarders are moored

I dont know of any marinas that provide petrol, maybe its the higher risk involved and insurance costs involved...i think they would do really well out of providing it though...

if I would be a Marina manager, I would speak to the big petrol companies....would let them work out a business case and install and run the pump(s)
However, it seems that the marina earns a few bobs by the (red) Diesel sales and wont let go that easily.
