Sorry no idea about the moorings. What is obvious is that to make the moorings for the show boats (eco) BW have cut down all the treees/bushes on the offside which were the nesting sites of lots of Moorhens. One assumes it was done in the non nesting season.We have seen water voles along there too.

We will cruise down to the National (mooring is D11B) before returning via the Trent and Mersey.
