Register to vote

If you don't have a permanent mooring or site, you can choose to register at either: 

  • a place where you spend most of your time
  • where have some connection

You could register at the place where you were last permanently registered to vote. Alternatively, you could register at somewhere like the boatyard you use for maintenance for example.

To register to vote in this way, you'll need to download and complete a form for someone with no fixed or permanent address.
