I think Arthur Marshall's comment is good and worth repeating. I like it, anyway: "I think what niggles all of us who have in the past used the Bridgewater regularly is that CRT don't appear to enforce any action against BW boats on CRT waters (at least not that I've ever heard of), wherever they roam or for how long, and that they don't seem to be applying any pressure on Peel over this return trip charge. I'd still be interested to know how many people have actually been charged it and how they paid - I certainly wouldn't hand over 40 quid to someone with no ID or without an invoice. The fact that no-one's been taken to court for it is a bit irrelevant, it wouldn't be cost-effective unless someone ran up a fair backlog of charges. All these legal arguments are interesting - same as the ones about CRT's legal authority to charge mooring fees or for short term stays on the towpath. But they still do, and they still get paid, and no-one yet has managed to prove in court that they aren't legitimate. I suspect the same will be true of the BW stuff." The fact they haven't taken anyone to court isn't irrelevant at all and has nothing to do with cost ratio. If you get a parking ticket and don't pay it. The council don't say 'oh well never mind it's only 30 quid it's not worth chasing' do they? If they let one get away with it everyone will do it. And CaRT haven't and won't do anything about it because they agree with them and they are supplying them with information that i have passed on in confidence. CaRT want Peel to win so they can start selling off all the canals, or at least the ones that can make a profit. And CaRt have NEVER enforced the agreement and Bridgewater boats can be seen all over the place and for much longer than they should be. Having said that if Bridgewater was CaRT controlled they'd have CaRT licenses so could go where they wanted. And I don't object to that.

Who is he on here? I can call him a stupid Welsh cunt on here can't I? Makes me ashamed to be half sheep shagger! he's not on here as far as is known, but I expect he reads this forum. He is as he has just suggested we let you know he is a member on here. I have invited him to start posting on here in light of this information. I suspect he won't.

Even the most implausible half baked rants we get from time to time make more sense than any post of his I've seen. Maybe it's the language barrier.....you know we speak a general sort of English and he talks pure bullshit.

CaRT want Peel to win so they can start selling off all the canals, or at least the ones that can make a profit. That cannot happen. CaRT have of course succeeded in gaining the Secretary of State's consent to selling off tiny increments of the national asset, which is appalling enough, but to sell whole canals would be too much of an obvious violation of the terms of the Waterways Infrastructure Trust. CaRT are not owners but merely current [and replaceable] trustees of the property placed in trust "in perpetuity" for the nation.

And in law you are probably correct. But it seems to me that the way things are going, what anyone connected with waterways can and can't do seems to rest more on what they want than what they are allowed. They seem to be do it first get permission later.
