Sailing weekend Harwich....

    Just drying out ( in more than one way) from our sailing weekend in Harwich, we all had a great sail on saturday alongside some monstrous container ships that looked like moving walls of steel, The weather on Sunday was terrible and the forcast bad so we packed up and left early. We stayed over in the old fire station which is now a hostel and were invited over to the Harwich Town Sailing club for a meal on friday eve along with a folk group to entertain us, it was such a lovely evening and they were all so friendly and welcoming.

    7 boats ( Wayfarers ) and 20 sailors in all, not a bad turnout for such a small fleet at Notts County... The tide was on the turn as we came in  and with the combination of sinking trailor wheels and very large waves the boat filled with water and we all had a bit of a dunking.
