HYS Drystack

Tempted with Drystacking for the next 12Mths and see HYS as being a pretty good deal - anyone got experience they can share? (good or bad, it all helps!)

Sounds like they will hide my trailer as well which is a help!

Ta!

Dry Stack

Give Southampton Dry Stack a ring - if you look at a few threads on here many positive comments have been made about their operation.

as a matter of interest how much does drystacking a 6m rib for the year work out at? I am currently moored in central london, which costs just under 2k per annum and was potentally looking to move the boat elsewhere.

Tim not really, just fancy a change of scene maybe. At <2k pa, I think Cadogan Pier is a competitve rate.

Talking of speed limits as I understand it at the moment, the area to be covered will be from Westminster to Tower bridge which is fine by me. The original thoughts of extending it from Wandsworth bridge to the barrier are a bit wide of the mark............or thats what i'm hoping!

2k sounds like a very competitive price to me, certainly compared to South Coast marina prices.

Agree that SDS have established a good reputation.

However, for budget storage and launching, Drivers Wharf can offer you a package at well under £2k per annum. www.dryberthing.com
