Moorings at Coquet Yacht Club
Coquet Yacht Club has its own moorings on the River Coquet adjacent to the Clubhouse. These are available on an annual basis to Full Members who apply and are allocated a mooring by the General Committee.
Club moorings are double ended with vessels moored by the bow and stern with the bow pointing up-stream. The moorings are reasonably sheltered but can be subject to wind and sea in strong north to north-west winds with the worst conditions around high water. At low water on big spring tides most vessels on moorings will dry but for suitable boats this is not usually a problem. Boats must be deemed by the Club to be suitable for moorings and must have secure attachment points at the bow and stern able to take chain.
There is limited storage ashore for day boats that can be launched and recovered by the owner.
Boats on moorings can store a tender ashore provided it is identified with the name of the parent vessel.
Annual boat fees:
Annual Mooring and Storage charge £ 120
Day-boat storage ashore £ 50
Harbour dues £ 27.90 per metre length (inc. of vat)
£ 8.52 per foot (inc. of vat)
(NB. Harbour dues are collected by the Club on behalf of Warkworth Harbour Commissioners, who require this charge to be levied on every boat that is put below HW in the harbour no matter how long this is for. Harbour Dues are not pro rata.)
