Two Weeks On Ranworth Breeze

[Cockatoo]

Tomorrow we are starting 2 weeks on Ranworth Breeze. This will be the first time I've ever spent longer than a short break or one week holiday on the Broads.

We plan to spend a week down South and then head North for the spring meet.

The weather forecast looks reasonable, the tides ok for a trip north although we will have to head back a bit early.

 

Bring it on ?

[MauriceMynah]

I'll not bother saying "Have a good time" as you undoubtedly will. but... well... Have a good time. See you at the meet.

[ExSurveyor]

You looked very content going up the Yare earlier.  Have a great holiday.

And if you have a few beers too many, please try and demolish that silly bridge at Potter Heigham.

2 weeks will be amazing, keep us updated with pictures / places please.

5 nights is the most I've managed to have on board. So far.

Have a fabulous time, undoubtedly you wil!!

Sorry I've been a bit slack with the pictures and stuff but here we are moored tonight  at the Ferry Inn 

 

Last night we were at Loddon.

 

When we get somewhere with a decent 4G signal I’ll upload more pics

Hi Steve,

It looks as if the current is a lot better than we had on your training day when we moored up at the Ferry House Inn at Surlingham, that day we had to use a center rope to try and keep us straight on the moorings.

I am looking forward to more pictures of your adventures and your presence at the forum meet.

Regards

Alan

I just woke up to another beautiful day ?

 

As usual at the start of a holiday I have an itchy a#*e and can't stay in one place too long but luckily Deb's send to be catching it e.g. yesterday we arrived at Norwich Yacht Station with plans to stay the night. While we were eating a late lunch in the Compleat Angler we decided it was too early to moor for the night so we headed back here via a stop at Whitlingham to put the canopy back up and have a short siesta.

 

Plans for the day? None other than relax and see where the river takes us ?

[MauriceMynah]

Your 'plans for the day' are perfect.

[grendel]

better than mine- mine are 9.00 training until 3pm, then work until 5pm then head straight for Norfolk to work on Tims Boat - at least on the bright side Norfolk is in there somewhere for the weekend

And now we are headed north. We got to Reedham and the high tide seemed very low so ai rang GT Yarmouth Yacht Station and they advised that this afternoos low tide was probably going to be lower than forecast so we went to the Berney Arms and rang them an hour before low water. The clearance then was 10ft so we went for it.

A few more from Saturday
