6 of the 38 told us in the last six weeks they have space: Dauntless Boatyard, Harlow (Blackwater) Sailing Club, Hazlemere Marina, South Woodham Ferrers Yacht Club, Thurrock Yacht Club and Tollesbury Marina. Each page shows the date they told us and what they have.
2 of the 38 say you can: Hazlemere Marina (residential moorings with planning consent) and Chelmer & Blackwater Navigation (liveaboard by arrangement). Living aboard can need planning consent and council tax; ask each site about its terms.
On top of the mooring fee: of these, 1 need a Canal & River Trust boat licence, 2 need Environment Agency registration (Thames, Medway, Anglian waterways), 1 need lake registration where the lake authority requires it and 9 need the navigation's own licence. Coastal marinas usually need none.
