An Old Buoy's Tour of the Haven
- 24 Oct 2025
Details
A journey through the centuries of the maritime history of our region highlighting fascinating tales and connections.
We'll sail an erratic course, from the third century Deben, via the Haven and visit the Ipswich River. En route, you'll meet the great Nelson, and others less well known but also important or interesting. We'll return to the Deben just in time to miss the twentieth century!
Photo of Bob Crawley, a local sailor, passing the Deane port hand mark, one of the subjects of the talk.
