Avery pleasant row this morning with one of our crew was looking longingly across at the establishment on the opposite shore whilst we stopped on Stonner Point. No pint and chips today!
The Trusty Post
A lovely row with the bonus that the Deben Yacht Club was providing food and drinks on our return. Richard tied us up to the trusty post by the railway bridge whilst we watched much fishy activity. This is becoming a much loved spot.
No words needed!
Except one maybe….delightful!
Two day trip out to sea!
Two separate crews navigated the outward and return journeys from Woodbridge to Ipswich, via Felixstow on the 1/2 August. In theory the weather should have been beautiful but that wasn’t always the case as the crews experienced sun, rain, squalls and high winds.
In between the short ‘weather experiences’ we had a great time and made several stops at Landguard Fort, Felixstowe Ferry and Waldringfield. Some stops were muddier than others and in some places we didn’t lose our footwear!
Chairman, Julian Taylor, expertly navigated the river Deben bar to get us out to sea and back again. Big thanks from all of us.
A very good time was had by all.
A difficult choice! or maybe not…
That difficult choice when the cox asks the crew if they want to row for a few more miles or stop off at the pub…
The photos say it all!
Lovely morning for a row on the river Deben and a chinwag at the pub.
Breakfast outing after the storms
A fine sunny row to the Maybush for breakfast. But what’s that we see on our table whilst we await our meal? That’s not proper ketchup, what happened to the Heinz? Ah, what goes on at the rowing club, stays at the rowing club!
Picnic at the Hams
A lovely evening spent on the water in Whisstock. The weather might have been a bit cooler than of late but the colours and reflections were stunning.
A planned picnic at The Hams refuelled everyone for the rather choppy journey home.
A good time had by all!
Sæ Wylfing at the Woodbridge Regatta
Members of the WCRC took to the water in a very different vessel today when they rowed Sæ Wylfing at the Woodbridge Regatta. Sæ Wylfing is a half length interpretation of the Sutton Hoo ship and great fun to row in.
It was good to see so many other vessels on the water with sailing, paddle boarding, dragon boating, rowing, cruising, canoeing, kayaking and rafting.
Beating the heat on the water
This crew had the pleasure of a sunny Friday row while everyone else was sweltering in the heatwave! Good fun had by all.
Summer Solstice 2025
What better way to spend the longest day than taking two full skiffs to the pub for beer and chips.
