We've just come back today from 10 days out. We had it booked with work etc for months but completely lucked-out on the weather! It's been a scorcher!

As we came through Bray lock coming back into the marina there were boats every 30 yards as far as the eye could see... a lot of boats from Bray in the queue that I recognised and it might have been organised as everyone seemed very dressed up. Anyway, I appreciated the on-ceremony "welcome home"... ;-)

To answer your question... extremely busy! Bray was very empty and DA at Cookham was completely empty bar 5?? boats.

A glorious occasion, topped off by a brief but ecstatic ceremony in which the Concours D'Elegance award was announced to the loveliest Broom 30 in existence :D:D:D

In yer dreams Tony!

1 day polishing topsides, now lethal to walk on :D

1 day scrubbing waterline and polishing hull as best as possible :eek:

1/2 day buffing fittings, windows, rearranging burgees etc and fenders. ;)


Result: almost bought a tear to my eye it did! Still in pain, but have the piccies...

The sailpast was well attended, with around 16 boats in all. Nice meet up afterwards too! :eek:
