An Autumn Day on the Hamble

[Solitaire]

While having my trailer bearings sorted, I took a few pix of the on-water activity on the River Hamble. Some may recognise themselves!

Nice pictures David, was a beautiful day, In fact a beautiful weekend. Spent Saturday cleaning at Saxon and a short run out, lovely autumn sunshine.

I particularly liked the monochrome picture of the boat being recovered onto a trailer. It's a timeless scene which looks as if it could have been taken at any time in the last 40 years.

Spotted our "first" proper boat! Hot Property the red Fletcher 19GTO sports cruiser. We had her for three seasons on a swinging mooring on the Exe, sold her about 10 years ago. Still have lots of happy memories of her. Anyone know where she is berthed now??

Does he tow it with the trailer board up there? I'm not sure that's entirely legal.
