Did you know that AR used to visit Broadstairs, to see his friend who was the author of Billy
Bunter. He also came twice to Broadstairs in 1913 and stayed for around three days on each visit.
This has been confirmed by Ted Alexander from extracts from AR's diaries.

Local legend has it that AR used to berth his yacht in Ramsgate Harbour and go overland to
Broadstairs. However all Harbour logs for the period have been either lost of destroyed so
we will never know from those sources what craft he used on these
visits.
