Chelsea14Ian Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Have seen some posts on Facebook, seems water very low in Brundall. It tends to happen every so often.A few years back we were heading to Beccles. Never seen the water so low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPEEDTRIPLE Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 I can remember quite a few years back, Karen and i being moored at Reedham, and the coachroof of Swallow was level, maybe even slightly lower than the quay heading. Also, several years back, someone posted a photo of Loddon basin with no water in it. I bet the tide was running extremely fast to take that amount of water out, and i would also think there would be a lot of room under Potter Heigham bridge. Just don`t go under it, otherwise you might need a crane to get you back?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshman Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 No no - it cannot be running out of the Bure, as its not been dredged enough has it? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveRolaves Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Very low tide at St Olaves today. Its the lowest I have seen it - many boats in the marina were on the mud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwanR Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Howard where were you moored in those photos? That would have been me well and truly stuck on the boat!! We did drive up to Lowestoft this morning and we always glance over the Orwell Bridge if we go that way. Hubby did comment that it looked like a really low tide ... now I know why.

SwanR Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Robin has posted a little video on the Facebook page showing what it's like where Independence is moored, if anyone who is a member over there is interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaughan Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 Susie has just showed me Robin's video on facebook. Quite exceptional. I am trying to remember if I have ever seen the Yare as low as that, but I can't. By the way Robin, those bubbles are good old "marsh gas". Methane. Don't strike a match!

TheQ Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 It took a rescue boat to tow us ( yeoman keelboats) out of the moorings. As our keels dragged in the mud and that was at high tide. When we returned 4 hours later we needed two rescue boats, and a rope to the shore to manoeuvre us back into our moorings with me stood on the bow to keep the rudder out of the mud to stop it being bent. We and several other boats had hit mud during the racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshman Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 My guess is that it will get back to normal pretty quickly. https://www.ntslf.org/data/realtime?port=Lowestoft 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
