StillCruising Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Hi. I have been going through some long forgotten photos and found this one, unfortunately it has suffered over time. I just can't place where it was taken, it would have been in the early 70's possibly in the south. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Cheers.

StillCruising Posted January 16, 2022 Author Share Posted January 16, 2022 Ranworth was my first thought, but there looks to be another dyke behind and some water beyond that. I thought that it could be somewhere south as friends had a caravan at Caister that we used to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there another that could remove the awful 70's fashions? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CambridgeCabby Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 To me it’s certainly the dingy dyke Ranworth , the dyke in the background looks like Steve from the shops dyke which is about the same size as the day boat dyke. there used to be a couple of photos in the shop taken before the current wooden fence was erected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebell Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 I’m slightly concerned that this party could br me and mine…😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillCruising Posted January 16, 2022 Author Share Posted January 16, 2022 Thank you so much for your replies, I think that it is Ranworth, it just looked a bit different in those days. The colourisation was amazing, thank you DavidH. I took the photo but sadly of the four friends in front of the boat only the one on the left is still around and it is for him that I'm seeking the location. Once again thanks for your help.

retired Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Could it be Russell Marine South walsham, looking down towards Fleet Dyke moorings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
