Ransome's Boats in Woodbridge Saturday, March 3rd, 2007 31 TARs, including 5 juniors, descended on Woodbridge on a lovely day, to visit Nancy Blackett, undergoing work in Robertson's Boatyard, and Lottie Blossom 1 (now Ragged Robin III) in the Tidemill YH.  Peter Duck was (literally) locked away in Shotley Marina (waiting for the lock to be repaired), so was inaccessible, but we we were able to look over her history and logs during soup lunch in the Granary.

21 were able to have an hour's sail on Lottie down river to Methersgate Quay and back

Finally, we filled the Whistlestop Cafe for a cream tea before leaving!

Keep your eye on the compass!
