Having moved out of the locked Shotley Marina to Woolverstone for a change, I am amazed at the number of speeding power boats on the upper reach's of the Orwell. I have even noticed that MDL let Jet Skis launch at Woolverstone and today there was someone water skiing past the Marina. Now I always thought that there was a 6 knot limit on the Orwell except just downstream of Levington where skingwas allowed.
Is this s new thing or have these boats been charging up and down every year? I guess they are too afraid to venture out to sea as I've not seen as many when sailing from Shotley.
If it dosn't get better through the season I think I'll be heading round to the Deben for peace and quiet.
