AUTUMN CRUISE 2025

Friday 26th / Saturday 27th to Sunday 28th September 2025

(Not Friday 3rd / Saturday 4th to Sunday 5th October 2025 as originally published here)

 

Cruise Leader: Jo Edye

 

It seems like a very long time since EACC have taken a cruise beyond Potter bridge, so despite my original plan to head to Stokesby, and after careful consultation with the tide tables, I have decided to take the Autumn cruise up to Hickling and Horsey.

Friday 26th September: Gather at the club moorings in the usual way.

Saturday 27th September: Low tide at Potter bridge is 10:24, so Sun Glory II (6'1" air draft) will aim to get through the bridge at that time, mooring up the other side for a late breakfast / early lunch. Those with less air draft and more confidence may cross later at their discretion.

When the fleet has gathered north of the bridges we can sail up to Hickling, have a hack around Horsey and raft up for lunch before making our way to the Pleasure Boat at Hickling. Hopefully there will be room in the dyke or possibly via the NWT - we are investigating options. Worst case scenario is a raft up on the broad and shuttle into the pub but I'm sure the famous EACC ingenuity will see us through! Dinner in the pub will be a pre-order, so I'll put the menu up when I have it, I do need to let them know numbers nearer the time - email me please if you are planning on eating at the pub that night.

Sunday 28th September: Low water at Potter bridge is 11:00 so as on Saturday SG II will aim to get under at that time, mooring the other side for a coffee and possibly visiting Latham's for an out of town shopping experience before heading homewards.

Email me, realjoedye@gmail , if you're coming along.

Look forward to seeing you on the cruise

Jo Edye, Sun Glory II
