Why waste time?

I quite agree with Victor's comments about mooring, and also with his observation that when a new patrol officer is appointed, his stretch is soon cleared, writes Martin Brooks.

Therefore, why waste time on these ridiculous proposals which only penalise people who abide by the current rules?

Right to stay

Those who break them will continue to do so. I will fight to the bitter end to retain my right to stay in one place for two weeks, as I am now entitled to do, regardless of hire boats.

Why not scrap this ludicrous proposal and instead recruit more patrol officers to enforce the current rules?
