Guidance changed or law changed?

Guidance is irrelevant, Law counts.

apparently they can sail their boats as long as they dont travel anywhere - well thats an ok for the 3RR then

As long as you enjoy the journey it's recreation not travelling...

Dr Mark Collins, chairman of the Northern Rivers Sailing Club, said this was “fantastic news”, and that the day after the change was announced spent “four or five hours” exercising out in his yacht.

He said: “We thought it was unfair that we shouldn’t be able to take our boats out as exercise, and just wanted some consistency from the government.

 

 

Well I have news for Dr Collins and his yachting mates,  us who want to go on motorised boats are no different,   nor us, too late now who wanted to go on holiday in a holiday cottage, it was for our mental health as well.    It is either a lockdown for all or not at all.   You dont think this virus is piccy as to where it lands,  it could well land on a yacht as anywhere else.
