Not so many trees but the section between Martham And Heigham sound, or the river Ant WIDE? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Short answer - yes Long answer - If properly prepared with intact night vision (see Grendel's description about astronomers) this should be perfectly possible in the conditions you describe if done slowly and some prat doesn't shine a bright white light anywhere close to your direction! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undeniably true but that's provided the cabin lights are off and dashboard lights are masked. Last summer I witnessed a small US built sports cruiser go by in the early hours with its cockpit aglow with a mass of blue illuminated dials and the like, hardly helpful!
