Annual registration
If you keep your boat anywhere on the non-tidal Thames (including in marinas) you need to register your boat and pay the annual fee or risk being prosecuted for non-compliance. Most boat owners pay for their licence on time.
Contact the boat registration team on 03708 506 506.
Speed limit
The speed limit for all vessels (except rowing coach boats training crews displaying a coaching pennant) on the non-tidal Thames is 8kph or 4.3kts or 5mph. Do not create wash whatever speed you are navigating at.
Key
- Caution strong stream
- We advise users of all boats not to navigate because the strong flows make it difficult and dangerous.
- Caution stream increasing
- We advise users of all unpowered boats not to navigate and users of powered boats to find a safe mooring. This is because river flows are likely to strengthen and red boards could be displayed very soon and without warning.
- Caution stream decreasing
- We advise users of all unpowered boats not to navigate and users of powered boats to navigate with caution.
