SPRING CRUISE
Friday 2nd - Monday 5th May 2025
Didn’t we have a fabulous weekend!
As we set off Friday lunchtime we wondered what sort of a weekend it would be when Paul Stevens put his jib on upside down!
Friday evening – the Grand Opening of our new Clubhouse.
Saturday – sail to Jo & Cally’s at Wroxham. Thank you Jo & Cally for your hard work preparing the moorings for us after recent dredging work and for making Saturday evening one to remember. Also thank you for letting us cook kippers for Sunday morning breakfast in your kitchen.
Sunday – on to Coltishall with boats dressed overall moored on The Green, a nod to the VE Day 80th Anniversary celebrations. Quite a sight and a talking point for those enjoying an icecream! Well done Carolyn & Jimmy for raising £100 for the Clubhouse Fund with their ‘guess the number of shackles in the jar’ competition. Well done also John Aves for guessing the correct number of shackles – 63.
Sunday evening – a fantastic meal in the marquee at the Recruiting Sergeant, excellent service and delicious food. Thank you Colin for entertaining us before dinner with a singalong of wartime songs.
Monday - rather cold and windy for our journey home, so not much sailing but we did find a sheltered spot for lunch on Salhouse Broad.
Thanks everyone for making it a great weekend and as Jane Stevens said ‘thanks for being part of our wonderful club’!
