And more! Wonderful!
What's the story behind all those Freeman's moored up together? (is that what they were in picture 14?)

the Freemans are all moored at a small marina (Sheridan Marina) near Moulsford. They are always there and I assume that the marina is for Freemans only

Hardly 'a marina' !
They are boats belonging to the Freeman owners' club adjoining Sheridan Marine who do all things Seagul and Freeman.
I've never seen them less than three deep.....

Excellent pix......did wonder where I left the car !

I do so enjoy peoples photos. The Freemans are moored at Andrews because he is the main agent and owns all Freeman Rights.

smashing pics, I can't wait to head there myself!

Lovely photos of some of our favourite places along the Thames. Forgive me if I missed it but where did you start from? We still haven't ventured far in our new boat but hope to go to Lechlade and back soon if I can get a week off work!

 

[Murv]

Thanks all, they certainly make quite a sight!

passing through Henley during the Regatta

Great photos! Particularly liked these ones taken of Fawley Court for their Regatta event for which I have the nerve wracking task of securing the necessary consents for temporarily moving the public footpath so that the impressive hospitality suite (and parking space!) can be erected.

Great pictures. Makes me want to skive off work and head up river on the boat while we've still got some sun.

Lovely photos. Thanks for the memories. Last time I was up river was as a lad nearly 50 years ago.
