Brandy Hole at Hullbridge on the Crouch. 4 sailing clubs, numerous pubs, a supermarket or two, even a pharmacy and doctors.

About 1/2 a mile to hook to the sea wall for your dinghy.

Felixstowe Ferry on the Horse Sand.

 

[bastonjock]

theres an anchorage at Sea Palling,it gives some protection to the weather but not a lot,Wells used to be free if you sat on the hook but they are now charging a fiver to sit on the mud,There is a Sailing club at the mouth of the Humber who by all accounts are friendly and very welcoming to visiting Yachtsmen.Nothing at Yarmouth unless he can drop his mast and head up river.There is an overnight pontoon at Sutton bridge on the nene (no facilitys).
