I `think` we have decided on a spot, Skipton was good but then after much thought nah without going into details. I found a mooring at Hest Bank but a tow path and rather better security. So a thought on as i like sea fishing and no locks ( T`s idea as she is lock`y lol ) Anywhere north of Gastang so then its a half day cruise to Hest Bank and Morcombe/Lancaster. I will be calling Bridge house and Garstang Marina tomorrow to see what the mooring rates are and see if anything is available or upcoming. Any opinions s on these Marinas ? Wayne  PS happy to look elsewhere nearby a si have googled mapped for ages and see a lot about but no info. |

Did the lanky twice with our first trail boat. Lovely. Launched once at Moons Bridge, south of Garstang, once at Bridge House.
There is a marina at Carnforth, seen something near Galgate.

Agree a great canal. Moonsbridge MMmmm, some reason not keen on that spot. Been a few times working on boats. Me being picky but if we could get a mooring a few hours + cruise to Lancaster it will be spot on. Carnforth a bit to far up. Garstang is in the middle, so Preston etc is good. |

Garstang Marina would be my choice over bridgehouse, though both are good to deal with - moorings are scarce though. May be worth calling Raby's contractors at Cabus, they have a lot of offside moorings (I keep thinking about getting one myself) in a really nice spot. Carnforth marina has gone now, so that's not an option.

All sorted i think, Got an off side Farm mooring near Cabus to look at this weekend and if its as we are expecting from the other Farm moorings we have had it will be fine. No services but for the money i would not expect it to have. Happy days Thanks Markhez  Ow you a cider or two |
