What a fantastic two days at the Suffolk Show, a week ago today we headed off to our local County Show ☀️⛵️

We had an amazing time meeting so many people, chatting all things sailing and introducing visitors to life on the water.

Our stand was packed with activities, from learning the basics of sailing in a dinghy on dry land, to making origami boats from out of date nautical charts and racing radio-controlled boats in the paddling pool. It was brilliant to see so many people getting involved and having a go.

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by to say hello, ask questions or share their stories with us. We loved meeting you all and look forward to welcoming many of you onto the water soon.

And finally, a special shout out to our incredible team back at the office. While we were at the show, they kept everything running smoothly, courses continued as normal, enquiries were answered, and our customers were looked after as always. We couldn't have done it without you. 💙
