Hi there,

Manningtree in Essex is the location (multimap CO11 1AU), but we're coming up to
the last sail of the year for this season. However, it would be good to plan to
join sometime in the new year if possible. We sail pretty informally, and often
self start so none of us sit on land and miss out on the sailing!!

if you are ever by this area I live on the waterfront - feel free to call (07802
236251)

Hope that helps,

Tim Goodwin
