Nancy Blackett has had a busy summer of sailing trips for members of the Trust along the East Coast, from local daytrips and overnight stays on the Rivers Orwell and Stour, to venturing further afield – south to “Secret Water” and north to Southwold and Lowestoft.
On the way, our members have encountered lounging seals, giant ferries and historic Thames barges, while experiencing a typical variety of summer weather conditions.
A selection of photos from July and August is below, while full details of these members’ trips and more are in our sailing newsletters – available for members only. To find out more about joining the Trust for the chance to sail on Nancy Blackett please see our Membership page.
