Swinging moorings with walk-ashore berths in East Anglia
A buoy on a ground chain; the boat swings with wind and tide and you need a tender to get ashore. Berths you step off onto a pontoon, quay or bank: no tender, no rowing out to a buoy. Easier for loading, for a dog, and for getting aboard after dark.
