SOIA Broads Rally 2008














Hi All,
I've just returned from The Norfolk Broads where the SOIA hold their September rally each year. The Broads are a collection of old peat diggings that have flooded and which are interconnected by an assortment of rivers and channels, this may not sound very nice but I can assure you that the area is very beautiful and full of a wide range of wildlife. The weather was very kind to us this last weekend so the sailing was great and the pubs were even better!
We had 9 boats in all attend so we tended to fill most of the moorings when we stopped, we even managed to coerce the guide at Horsey staithe to open up the old wind pump for us to have a look around!
