I reviewed these notes in April 2021. I've added links to various chartlets issued by the relevant marinas and updated prices which remain pretty much the same.

There have been improvements at both Bradwell and Blackwater Marinas. Maldon Little Ships now offers visiting berths at Maldon but need advanced booking. Prices have gone up a little but not vastly different to previous years. The charts have been updated to 2019

These notes were reviewed by Don in March 2017. We have replaced the charts with this year's charts NB some buoyage has changed in the vicinity of the East Swin and Middle Deep; the Gunfleet Sands Wind Farm farm have been expanded there as well. There have been minor increases in the overnight charges and Tollesbury is now charging £3.50 per night for shore power.

These notes were reviewed and updated by Don in March 2015. Prices have gone up a little in places and been held in others.

These notes were updated by Don T on the 28th March 2013. Where possible I've updated the prices and information has been included on how to contact the Tollesbury Saltings Ltd (who run the mudberths there) It is apparent that the sailing clubs and marinas in these reaches are being improved all the time and these improvements (where known) have been noted in the text.
