Waiting for the Tide
I have it on good authority that the Cowes Harbour Commission video I linked to last week is worth watching if you plan to visit the area in the next year or two (I think that actually gives us enough time to get back on the water!). Having watched it I can confirm that it covers a number of areas of development, and isn’t too dry – in fact about 4 minutes are views around the area put to music, and there is plenty of footage of boats on the water during the talking too. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend watching the recording of one of their Advisory Committee meetings though. As a member of Langstone Harbour Board it is always interesting to find out more about other harbours, but even as chair of the LHB Advisory and being interested in the comparison, I couldn’t watch the whole hour plus! I will include the link again to save anyone interested looking it up (that’s the report, not the meeting):

I’ve been having a bit of a clear out recently, which I suspect isn’t that uncommon with the combination of a new year and lockdown, but the reason I mention it is that I came across a couple of old copies of Ebb & Flow. That has provided some new content for this week and a challenge. Attached is a piece from the December 2003 edition entitled “Bay of Seine Cruise – Part 1”. So enjoy the first part, and the challenge is for anyone to let me have the second part! I think the best hope may be with our Commodore as he is the author, but finding a document from just over 17 years ago may not be easy.
As ever, feel free to drop me an email at this address if you feeling isolated and cut off from the world. It is always nice to hear from members, and any ideas of things to include in the Tidal Diamonds would be most welcome.
Stay safe.
