Medway Coordinator

Jacky Beardsmore, Molly Two (Seamaster 30) based at Allington Marina, has recently taken on the role of Coordinator for the members in this area
which includes the River Medway, Lower River Thames and South East coast.

More details later.

Some member's meet for lunch at the Malta Inn (pictured right:) each spring. These events are a great success. Located just above Allington Lock this location is very easy to find - Leave M20 at Junction 6 and follow the brown signs to The Museum of Kent Life - and there you are.
Many crews attend, along with friends and several members of the Committee, and we generally have about 3 people in all. Over a very pleasant lunch we are able to discuss all sorts of Seamaster topics as well as normal social discourse. Thanks are due to all those who attend for creating a very successful event.

She is distinguished by having a very special mirror in the saloon.


 

Several members of the Seamaster Club Committee cruised the River Medway for a few days going all the way up the navigation to Tonbridge in May 2003. Here is a picture gallery built up on that trip.
