HI Jim
I have no photos but if you go to the DCA website (dinghy cruising association) they have a pilot by ed wingfield which is very good
the harbour is a gem
the farne islands are teaming with wildlife+daytrippers+divers
anchored by longstone lighthouse for lunch
I had a camera but could not find it in a 16 foot boat?
(a place for everything&everything in its place)

ps found it when i got home

Hi Pilki

You made it sound as good as I thought it might be. I have ben looking at the DCA. They seem to have quite a good program also.

I shall definately consider sailing there sometime. I enjoy the wildlife aspect of sailing too.

Thanks for the reply, keep in touch

Jim
