A good day out on the River Stort
We all met at the put in point, pub (The Moorhen) car park in Harlow. Everyone on the water just after 10am, and as ever more experienced paddlers helping less experienced members into their boats by coming alongside and offering stability.
New member Glen joined us in a Touring kayak. Dave on a SUP and he didn’t fall in, much to our disappointment.
The river is surrounded by green trees and it’s a pleasant paddle to first lock, where getting in and over was easy, providing we were careful of the holes in the ground.
Lunch was at a pleasant stop over; the sun came out and general catch up with each other.
Full distance was 4.36 miles (see below) and it was good to be back on the water with a friendly (all craft inclusive) group.
