I went to fuel up Seas The Day, our Jeanneau Leader 805. Test out the head cam and test out my mooring skills.😂

Seas The Day was looking fine on her mooring earlier as I paddled by; bird spinner whirling & not a gull to be seen. There’s some great boat names on the Avon, “The Donk” and “Fat Betty” always crack a smile 😃 Good solo boating skills there, especially without the bowthruster!

Sit there on the slip way large ice cream in hand and watch , how people launch and retrieve their boats , how many marr - rages are tested over the days ? . They use to have fuel diesel on the other side of Rossitors boat yard up the other river side and a lot more space to turn around . The river if it has rained hard has a very strong current and once saw a 32 foot yacht trapped side ways in between a very large cats sponsons . A very handy tool to pick the mooring up . Nice going and single handed . Life on the river always fun .

Well done … quite tight by the fuelling station. What year is your boat? Which Volvo engine, thanks David

Great to see you being adventurous with the camera Matt. I used to leave my main lines tied to the pick up buoy, then there was no hassle trying to reach the main buoy. Fuel in yours isn't that much different to mine. Since I gave the mooring up to tow again, I can now fill up in costco, which saves me about £30 on each tank compared to other garage prices and much more compared to marinas

@sharonbraselton3135 my boat and trailer are 25ft long but the fuel I use in the boat and towing it is still less than my mooring costs were. So like everything it's pros and cons.

Yeah, luckily my fuel is a little bit cheaper because I have diesel heating so I get some consession for that.

@boat-adventures My other issue is mine is 30 years old and petrol, so I can't use E10 petrol. Most on the water pumps are E10, which obviously makes them useless for me, which is a shame.
