Lost dinghy Orwell

[Dan Tribe]

At lunchtime Saturday we motored from Stone Heaps to Shotley and lost our Avon dinghy en route.
It has the name Megan Louise and t/t Traigh painted on it.
Probably under Trinity wharf by now but if anyone finds it there will be a reward.
Reported to Harwich Haven (in case the RNLI look for bodies) and Levington Marina.
Wife has already pointed out that it is entirely my fault!

I recommend you tell Dover Coastguard. It is they who will initiate a search if a dinghy is found and there is even a slight chance there could have been someone in it who went overboard. Harwich Haven or marinas may not get to know about the search until it is well underway.

There's an Avon dinghy tied up on the hard at Pin Mill. Looks a bit flat and tired.

Thanks. I saw that earlier on way to pub. Not mine. Mine is an Avon Rover with a wooden transom.

I have reported this lost dinghy to everywhere I could think of by telephone. But phone messages are easy to overlook, so I have tried to send emails without much success. Does anyone have email addresses for:
Dover Coastguard
Harwich Haven Authority
Ipswich Port Authority
Clicking on the "contact us" link just seems to send me off into oblivion. This could be a problem with my pooter.
I can understand that they don't want to waste time with yachties who can't tie knots, but I would like to be able to say that I have reported the loss.
