was out myself sat-mon.
went from keadby- grimsby hca sat morn.the river was a bit lumpy on the run down.but not too bad. very friendly place.had a great night in the club house,less than £1.40 a pint.. and they had some good entertainment on as well.
went back out onto the humber sun morning to go to spurn point.
started to blow f6+ westerly so headed for hull marina instead.
thats when over the radio i heard afew shouts for assistance..
one was for a red/white coloured yacht that was struggling with the tided and the sea conditions,another for a boat off skeggy that was taking on water.
and when we got back down to hull their was a birchwood ts37 who had humber rescue out. he had run a ground just below the humber bridge @14knts.
then the waves decided to bash him on the bottom until both his shafts were bent.
we got back in at keadby monday morning after a lumpy but good weekend.
hope every one else had a good but safe weekend......
 
How did you find Keadby,when I was there a few weeks ago there was 3 inches of weed from lock to rail bridge ! I had to shut the sea cock and fill the filter from the domestic water via the shower.Would have blocked the filter before I got in the Trent.Its a type of weed I,ve never seen before,much larger in diameter than the normal duck weed.
 
b.w.b should be ashamed of them self's...
yep the weed was still their.
we had to clean out the filter's after locking out,also had to clean them out again when we got back.(from the lock to the shower block!!).
