Explore the Broads. Barton Broad

The August meeting was held at Barton Turf. This time eight members and three skiffs took to the water at Cox's Boat Yard.
The weather was glorious with the gentlest of breezes. On Barton Broad some cruising yachts were being quanted with long poles. What a joy to know that there are still a few of us left who shun the internal combustion engine; well on the water anyway.
An anticlockwise circuit of the broad was sufficient for the evening, so, with the boats back on their trailers, five members visited the Wayford Bridge Inn for food, drink and wide ranging discussion.
