More photos of Weymouth Harbour
I have been told that about 50% of leisure boats never leave their moorings, although i can’t find any statistics to back this up.
Joining in with our One-a-Week Photo Challenge.
Short post again this week – life is still rather full-on!
Leave a link in the comments to be included in the monthly round-up.
Happy Snapping!

I can well believe that comment, having lived in one of the marinas here in Gibraltar for a couple of years, I remember overhearing that the two happiest days in a boatowners life are the the day they buy it and the day they sell it. I have a feeling the person saying it had a stationary one himself!

Not surprising. Probably half the owners are putting in overtime to pay for the boat. 😀

Thank you Cathy. It is such an alien world to me, but I do always love the shapes, designs and colours around boats and the water.

I know what you mean about an alien environment, Sandra – it wouldn’t be my choice of stomping ground but it is still very picturesque

Oh I love Weymouth Daffy. Both my parents were born there, and my dad often would take us out for an early morning walk around the harbour as a child.
I haven’t managed to go back there since my Dad’s funeral though as it was too painful. Lovely to see your photos thoughxx

If you ever need a friend to wander round the harbour with you, let me know. ❤
There is always such a friendly community atmosphere around the harbour – my favourite bit of Weymouth.

Although I love being out at sea, I guess the next best thing is sitting on a boat tied up to the mooring for some. Lovely pictures.
