A marina owner's opinion of "CCers" is irrelevant.

In fairness, having read his comments in full, I think they are aimed more at continuous moorers than continuous cruisers.

If the quotes reflect his views accurately, then he can't even be arsed to research what the situation is, so his views on what the problem is, or the resolution are meaningless.
These snippets from facebook make me very happy I don't do it.

'Eventually Nick Brown, the National Bargee Travellers Association Law Officer became exasperated with the marina owner's rant and reported it to Facebook as hate speech. He says he is also considering reporting Mr Wright to the police for the same offence. '

Seems perfectly reasonable to me! well maybe just the bit about ... Anyway this just goes to show that if you think you have a valid point and want to make it publicly, doing it calmly and precisely is the way to do it. Doing it by means of an over-egged rant is always going to be unsuccessful (well, unless you are Donald Trump I suppose). IMO the law as it stands isn't fit for purpose - my purpose, being that the canals should primarily be a cruising network and not a linear housing estate. As I've often said before, I've nothing against continuous cruisers who want to explore the system or at least use their boats primarily for navigation. Those who regard their boats as merely a floating flat, know nothing about boating, are incompetent when moving and when tying up their boat, and basically would much rather not have to move at all, are not good for the waterways as I see them. I totally understand that there is an alternative viewpoint which is that the canals are ripe for solving the country's housing problems, but it's a viewpoint I don't subscribe to. But the law as it stands doesn't really agree with me. Pity. For the time being.

Blimey, I find myself in the rather uncomfortable position of agreeing with TellyMackus.
