The rod under Wroxham railway bridge is closed with two cars abandoned there

I too, being raised in South Essex, am a Hammer. Likewise though having lived here on and off since 85 have a huge soft spot for the Canaries, right up to the point they play West Ham

Anything bigger WILL NOT fit my boat - the locker was made to measure

You may have seen me sailing my R/C Yacht if you are ever near Barton Turf - when I have a spare 30 mins and no time to get the real boat out, it's a great relaxation

So a straight question please :
From what I am reading here it seems that my daughter can travel from home at Potter Heigham to Stalham where our boat is moored and where the boatyard is still open for business. It also seems that if we were a national park, she could go out for the day in it. But all of a sudden, the Broads is not a national park!
Have I got that right?
By the way, Potter to Stalham is a much shorter distance than she drives to work every day, in an A&E hospital in Gorleston!
Yep - I can walk to my boat, fettle it if essential, but not go out. Then when walking back watch visitors to the village unloading their cars of canoes / paddle boards / fishing gear and get into a boat.
Hmmm.......

You know, I'm increasingly getting convinced the BA is overreacting, OR the rest of the world under. Sitting here looking at the Blakeney webcam this morning, we have had paddle boarders, canoes, Laser dinghy all going out. Yet I, who live in a Broadland village, at best can walk to my boat and stroke it.....
-
I have a Chinese all in one. It sits in the cockpit when I need it and is ducted through a hole into the cabin. Nothing permanently fixed, totally removable and no risk of anything failing inside the boat. Add the now mandatory CO alarm, and I'm snug and happy.

On the PB2 course, you do have to attend and it is a full 2 day course. Cost? About £300 p p I believe - thats quite a big cost to the yards and to be honest ,its only a piece of paper and will not stop one single accident! Do you really think that it would help one iota because if you do, I think you need to think again.
Its not the paper, but the person that counts!
One day refresher / assesment if already competent. Did mine a few weeks back. Good for the reason I did it - rescue boats, but of limited relevance to my yacht.....

Maybe see you next year !

Think the Indian is shut.Thai very good or walk over the bridge restaurant on the right.I think the Hotel is very expensive for what it is.Good for a drink and people watching though.
The one above the shops closed. Royal is the takeaway opposite side of the road to the precinct

To be fair the Royal Indian / Pizza shop in Wroxham does a fair curry. I use them a fair bit

Slightly different angle on the bridge would probably have taken the tooth out .....

If I’m below in the winter I have a portable diesel heater that sits outside with ducting into the cabin. Just needs 12v supply as it’s all self contained, and I can control it from below with the remote.
totally removeable in seconds, it also serves in the workshop

Took a day or two for the last one to show. I also have an opinion on this one, but will keep quiet out of respect.

Dredge the bed, then scale this down to Broads dimensions

Think you can just see my mast extreme right of that one :-)

I can ( nearly ) see my house from there ( or boat ! )

Why do we get so attached to our lumps of metal? ….
In my case because I'm a stubborn engineer
Last weekend summed up in 2 pictures - the cost of this at a garage is now close to beyond economic repair

Hoveton - behind village hall. Ten minute walk or so from the bridge towards Stalham

Like others I'm still waiitng for the small print. First lockdown, and so far since restrictions impossed this time, I did not sail as I was neither 100% sure of the legality, nor comfortable with doing so.
However, if I can walk to a sailing boat in my village, I may technically be OK to sail it
