Members of the Nancy Blackett Trust made the most of September and enjoyed sailing Nancy Blackett during the last of this year’s summer weather.

Highlights included more trips to the Walton Backwaters and shorter day sailing just along the River Orwell past Pin Mill, including a special visit to the Selina King exhibition at the Pin Mill Studio for former superyacht skipper Tony Edwards, who has just published his autobiography Paid to Live the Dream: A Seafarer’s Tale of Life Afloat.

A selection of photos from September is below, while full details of these members’ trips and more are in our sailing newsletters – available for members only.
