Sunday 18th September
Having been to or passed close by all points south, west, north and centre of Britain we can now tick off east. Lowestoft is Britain's most easterly town.

Close by the most easterly point is a wind generator called Gulliver which is the tallest wind generator in the UK. Colin now wants one that big for the back deck!!! Read more about Gulliver

Tomorrow we aim to head on closer to our winter home up the River Crouch, planning to visit the Orwell for a couple of days. Grimsby to Lowestoft was our last over-night trip, just a couple more day sails should get us there.
