I have no idea, but Cantata was in Burnham Yacht Harbour on Saturday morning, and didn't go on to Brightlingsea that day which was I think his plan A. That said he could have gone quite a long way since Sunday.
Only place I can think of with woods and high ground like this is Cockham Woods. If this is a telephoto shot, could the ancient tractor be abandoned on the saltings of Hoo Island somewhere?
No.
Surprised this is taking so long! I quite expected the first try to be correct. Loads of boats pass this relic regularly, and about the same distance away that I was.
Nooo.
Earlier in the thread there was a comment about where I was recently. I sailed from home (Faversham) to the Crouch and back, via the Whitaker on both passages.
Thereby hangs a clue. But if you ain't been where this is, you won't know it.
We pilot book writers have to get everywhere, y'know. It's no good guessing.
Above Burnham? The countryside looks right, I was there recently. Don't remember the tractor though. I got as far as Brandyhole so I guess above there.
