Nobody has the whole map
Prices, limits and times are scattered across the Environment Agency, marinas, pubs and private owners. You need six tabs and a good guess.
Every mooring, lock and riverside stop on one map — with the times, the prices and the time limits — before you've even cast off.
Live now on the Thames around Wallingford. More river on the way.
Cleeve Lock to Benson Lock, around Wallingford. It's where we're starting.
You're three hours downriver.
Where are you actually allowed to stop tonight?
Prices, limits and times are scattered across the Environment Agency, marinas, pubs and private owners. You need six tabs and a good guess.
Decoding a council website from the towpath, mid-cruise, with one bar of signal and a boat drifting behind you. Lovely.
Free spots are first come, first served. You cruise for hours, hope there's room, and find a hire boat parked across the lot.
Set off from Cleeve Lock at 11:30 and drag the slider. Distances are measured along the river, not as the crow flies — that's the bit that matters when you're steering.
You're 3.0 miles up the river.
Every mooring on the map tells you straight what you're getting. If we haven't confirmed it yet, we say so — you'll see a grey "Mooring unconfirmed" badge instead of a guess.
First come, first served. Environment Agency spots and free venue moorings. Nothing to pay, and no promises — arrive early.
On the map nowA pub or restaurant keeps a spot for you. You put down a small deposit, and you get it back when you arrive. Nobody walks up and takes it.
Booking coming nextMarinas and private landowners. Pay per night in the app — no phone calls, no cash in an envelope, no wondering.
Booking coming nextPrefer a map? Got it. Prefer a list you can filter by Eat, Sleep and Gates? Also got it. Same data, whichever way your brain works.
Keeper hours, the lunchtime gap, the winter cut-backs and what facilities each lock has — so you're not racing a closing gate.
"Two miles away" means nothing on a river with bends. We measure along the water, in miles and hours.
Open it and look. You only need an account when there's something to keep, like your bookings.
Boaters who moor at your door tend to eat at your door. Claim your listing, manage your spots and bookings yourself, and take payment for paid moorings. Free to list — we never charge a venue to appear on the map.
