Learning to sail - but where?

[johnm]

This young man is learning his way around the Broads, but just where is he whilst giving his mother palpitations?

Boxes will be removed as the requests become suitably grovelling or abusive lol

[Jupes]

Whitlingham??

You cannot see anything as it is all coloured out. I need more help please.

[johnm]

This young man is learning his way around the Broads

Certainly NOT Whitlingham.

There are clues visible to those who know

For those who don't.......... seems good lol

[jillR]

oulton broad?

jill

[Jupes]

That was going to be my second guess too!!

[Guest]

I think the young lad is sitting in one of those very dangerous "tippy toppy flappy" boats, probably dreaming that santa might leave him an engine in his cristmas sock.

[Brian]

Its definatly NOT wroxham broad, or salhouse broad

[Poppy]

My guess is Hickling Broad - I've seen skys like that often

[Broadlander3]

Yes Poppy...Has to be Hickling!...The clouds are a giveaway...caused by the locals reaction to lack of government funding for coastal erosion and the suggestion of flooding the area to save money...What are they thinking :x :x

Yes... Has to be Hickling Broad...

I have a feeling that is your boat and therefor one of your offspring so possibly not to far from your establishment on the upper Thurne, perhaps maybe could be.

[Guest]

Salhouse?

[Guest]

Black Horse Broad

[C.Ricko]

[Palmtree]

Hi

Wroxham Broad?

Ian

[SteveO]

I recognise that sky - it's definitely Wroxham Broad!!!!

[johnm]

Two of you are right so far

Let's see if everyone can get it from this - before I reveal all

Not on your Nellie, Smellie His idea of heaven is him and his boat , lots of wind and therefore the opportunity to scare his parents witless while he attempts to see if the boat stays upright whilst getting water to come in on the downhill side

[Happy Jax 3]

I am going to go with Olton Broad

[Poppy]

Most have never been here - they couldn't get past the bridge

[Antares_9]

That's what tenders are for Poppy.

That's what tenders are for Poppy.

But it's a long row - oh, silly me, stinkies have little egg whisks

[Antares_9]

Some tenders have sails, like the one in the picture, one of ours does, the other for serious coastal use is motor, oddly they both have oars, though I can't remember using those

[Guest]

Fear not David, your oars have seen use. When you kindly loaned us a tender that was how we got around. Of course the lack of a seat meant I had to adopt a rather undignified position to use them....
