So, there could be even less depth at the Sailing Club & Priors pontoons next year.

Only if they dredge and drop on the ebb Dan.

Only if they dredge and drop on the ebb Dan.

If past practice is any guide to their plans, they will dredge the entrance by dragging a blade along the bottom of the channel out into the river on the ebb - more or less an underwater bulldozer - saves raising the spoil to the surface.

So they will scrape all this carp out of the marina into the ebb tide. By the time it gets to the bottom of the Crouch the tide will have turned, and it will wash up in Mersea .... No thanks
