The cruising season will get off to a flying start with the inaugural cruise being the hotly contested model boat challenge on Woodbridge boating lake, followed by a light lunch at the clubhouse overlooking the river Deben.
The first cruise with actual yachts is the Deben Discovery in May, will be led by Clive. This delightful cruise is on the waters of the River Deben with a timed passage from the Woodbridge Haven buoy to Washington buoy and back over 4.8 NM, a club meal at the Ramsholt Arms, and SADs (safe arrival drinks) at the Tidemill.
The Ore and Alde cruise is always fully booked, with cruise leader Brian having a delightful programme cruising Orford, Aldeburgh, Iken, Snape and Butley, with SADS and convivial meals at local yacht clubs and pubs.
Although the convivial Wednesday suppers have finished, (until autumn next year), they are replaced by the Wednesday barbecue, a delightful way to spend an evening in the pleasant garden of the riverside club house.
The weekend bar is a lovely place to spend a lunchtime, catching up with friends and enjoying a drink with possibly the best view in Woodbridge.
The club is looking forward to the Woodbridge Regatta and details will be announced soon.
The cruising club is continuing with winter activities and Club Cruises are being planned for the summer, from the Deben river to Europe, so why not consider joining us.
