Ships Blog 25th May 2018

Morning all and welcome to the second May bank holiday weekend! A little overcast and foggy here in Harwich Harbour this morning. Forecast for the weekend not looking too bad. Wind in the East the whole three days but moderate in strength. Overcast start tomorrow but brightening up as the day goes on. Dunkirk Little Ships have a gathering at Ipswich Haven this weekend with a mayors reception. We are expecting a good number of visitors this weekend and in particular we welcome the Bradwell Cruising club for their first visit of the year. Duty Lockmasters this weekend are Colin Byford on days and Mark Taylor on the night watch. Enjoy a great weekend!
