Last Charter 2012

Last Charter 2012, picture by Dave Brooks.

Dave Brooks has posted this lovely shot on Facebook, about which he writes, “Cambria leaving Gravesend this evening (Friday 12th Oct), bound for Faversham for the winter. Its been a satisfying season with two barge match wins a return to Pin Mill and Ipswich highlights. Thank you to all the crews who have sailed in her this season, the volunteers who have kept her going and our sponsors the Rotary Club for their continued sponsorship support.” Dave’s wife Julie B is aboard for this charter, acting as one of the crew so I expect there was a bit of hankie waving in between the camera stuff. 

Friend of the Cambria and maker of the excellent “Red Sails” film Mike Maloney adds “What a Great Sight” and I think no more needs to be said!
