Yes.. twice... mahoosive ghange in winds and rain after it went over
Aah, i see now, that’s the Burnham channel buoys not Wells channel?No its right, holkham is between wells and scolt head. Its a fantastic cruising ground isn't it, numerous inlets and drying harbours to explore and nice little coast hops between. But need something that can dry out of course to make the most of it. I actually bought a £2500 23ft bilge keeler just to spend the summer up there with the wife and kids, could just about all sleep on it for a week on week off alternating with work over the summer, and then sold it in the autumn for about what I'd paid for it. No storage or maintenance fees. Compared to the price and what you get renting a cottage up there for even just a week I'd say that was a good method
I was expecting something squallish but nothing happened ?Yes.. twice... mahoosive ghange in winds and rain after it went over
I bet a lot of people who don't sail won't believe these sunset exist without photoshopNone of these photos have been cropped or adjusted.
That looks like the front edge of a squall though. The thing in Norfolk was just a cigar shaped cloud with nothing going on weather wise. Was quite oddI think it's called something like a roll cloud. I saw a similar one in Germany in 2011, which I think I have shown previously.
In the unreduced version you can see our visiting dutch friend is sailing butt nekid I've noticed they do that quite a lot
Jumping off the back without is quite the liberating experience but I got badly sunburnt through my shirt that day, i would have regretted it a lot more if I'd gone dutchNothing nicer if it's warm enough!
