It's a bit like Poole Harbour on a bank holiday morning when the bridge lifts

I think this is DAKA leaving the Lake Ozark Shootout earlier this year, I think its him because of the music choice and the drowning fellow boaters

On an RYA cruise several years ago the fleet came out of Poole in a similar fashion, constant badgering to keep up, I hung back in shame and caught them up after the chain ferry.
Next stop Cherbourg inner harbour (under the road Bridge)..........
The French lift the bridge but ity stops the traffic , 40 boats to get under in ?4? mins.
First boats @8 knots, the last ones @ 25 knots being told very sternly by the french guy on the bridge to hurry up as he is shutting it.
Thats straight past the main Visitor pontoon full of Brits rafted out.
Again I hung back on the basis it didnt really matter if we didnt make it into the inner marina.
39 boats created a similar wash through Cherbourg marina.
And guess who got the Rowlocking for the wash
Yep, us, the only boat (save the few at the front) who proceeded @ a sensible speed.
