The proposed Open Day for Nancy Blackett at Woolverstone Marina on 31 August is confirmed.
Members of the Trust will be at Woolverstone ready to greet visitors and repel boarders from 10.00 am.
The intention is to try to take all who visit for a short sail on Nancy before the evening Barbecue.
The Barbecue is being prepared by the "Schooner Club" at Woolverstone and will cost £6.00 per head - the Club will be open
all day for grog and food.
If you approach Ipswich on the A12 take the A14 towards Lowestoft and then the first exit following the signs for Shotley.
Woolverstone is a few miles along the Shotley Road and the Marina is clearly signed - please park in the "Long Term Car Park".
If you wish to attend the Barbecue please let Peter Willis 01252 28187 or Terry Absalom 01296 630894 know before the 14 August as we have to advise the Club on that day.
Look forward to seeing you there - don't forget to come prepared to polish some brass!
