LOWESTOFT TO RAMSGATE - ROUND BRITAIN

 LOWESTOFT TO RAMSGATE




Well this video is out a few days early as I’m setting of into the mountains for a charity hike set up by myself 40 miles 22 mountain summits in less than 38 hours. Video to follow from this very active channel. Anyway let’s talk sailing ...in this one we leave Lowestoft and head for Ramsgate. Remember watch that entrance at Lowestoft it can be dangerous. When we set of we had some awesome fast sailing for a while until the old wind on nose thing started. We headed towards Harwich and up towards the start of the river Stour to halfpenny pier. This was only a quick stopping point and to be honest we had no interest in exploring the rivers and mud banks. As I’m sure you all are aware that I’m not enjoying this coast due to its industrial nature wind farms and many other things.. it’s no offence to anyone so please don’t take that wrong just not my cup of tea. The next morning we set off for Ramsgate passing the Thames estuary and many wind farms ..it looks very cluttered on the charts and navionics but to be honest it’s straight forward and nothing really to worry about. Anyway we make it to ramsgate the approach was fine ...the marina is to the left as you come in so stay close enough to your port when into the main harbour as parts dry out to your starboard . So this is we’re we batten down the hatches and wait for some heavy weather to pass. Hope you enjoy the video and please give me a like and a little share. Have a great weekend folks
