Hi all
There are many boats moored up illegally on the Thames used as houses boats they are homeless or opt out of society. We were moored on a pubic mooring overnight in Reading when a homeless person approached saying would we rent him our boat has the Social service would accept this as an address and pay. This he would spill 50/50. I asked what happened to his old boat that he lived on it for 3 years. He replied the Environment Agency reclaimed the boat as it was stolen. When someone is mooring on a farmers land he removes it as squatter leaving mess and hazard to his livestock. This cost money and time then another person moors up.

Can't be much wrong with it - it's still floating!!!!
The cost of boating is insignificant compared to costs of a young wife and two teenage kids! |
