Boston to Bedford river festival 2022

[MajorClanger]

Hi all
Still a newbie at this boating but took advice and bought my first boat to learn a Monterey 256… love being on the water now feel confident to move up to a bigger boat. So I have just put the deposit on a sealiner 356 sportbridge…
Bedford river festival is on this July and I would like to know if any other members from Lincolnshire will be going as I would like to be in a group going across the wash for the first time

Worth joining the Sealine Forum if you haven’t already - they have a regional section and the Lincoln element is relatively active.

Not sure that you would make it to Bedford with the air draught on a 365 though - too many low bridges.

If I remember correctly the maximum air draft is about 7ft to get into Bedford. You have to prebook a mooring as only a limited number are available. A lot of taller boats can't even get under Offord bridge near Buckden Marina which is 8ft.
