Looks great I’d love a boat

[@chris-living-the-dream]

@maceyevo I never really wanted a boat up until 3 years ago , now I love it 😀, I think it makes a big difference that we can stay on it for a few days though .

Lovely video. Interesting to to see if you get bored quickly inland

[@chris-living-the-dream]

@fat_tommo_goes_boating thanks , I don't think we will to be honest unless something changes drastically, if we turn left out of the marina there is a pub that you can moor up and stay a couple of days , less than an hour to Lincoln city centre and it's only £16 a night for a pontoon mooring with free electricity. Turn right and a small village with pubs and takeaways with riverside mooring, and less to two hours more moorings and a pub for meals . If you have a few days spare you can lock out to the river trent and head for newark and Nottingham with moorings on the way to stop for a break of a bar snack . We also have some great neighbours at burton waters . The sea was good for me as I like fishing but not much good for everyone else when they feel sick lol . I would still however spend some time on the south coast and western Scotland one day .

Hi, Really enjoyed the video, we are moored at Burton Waters (Onyx) and thinking of going up to Hartlepool at some time.

[@chris-living-the-dream]

@paultrout7633 it's a good distance , we should have stayed overnight at scarborough but we had half decent weather so we just carried on , Flamborough head to spurn point was rough for a few hours but the rest was great .we love it at burton waters.

[@paultrout7633]

@@chris-living-the-dream Thanks for the advice. We are thinking of stopping off at Whitby. Hartlepool, and on up to Amble. I'll try and catch up sometime at Burton especially as we are big MX fans also.

@@chris-living-the-dream we loved burton waters, my wife’s favourite marina. My only frustration was the distance to the Trent. The marina is fantastic, great facilities, staff and support. We did a bit at Newark which had great access to the Trent, the. Moved ours down to Brixham to enjoy the Devon coastline. Enjoy BW’s👍

[@chris-living-the-dream]

@christiansymonds Brixham would be fantastic but too far to travel for us . Burton waters will be good for us as we are relatively new to boating and it gives us more opportunities to get out and gain experience and confidence to go into different marinas .
