Back Down The River Orwell

It had been hoped that the fully restored Albert Strange designed canoe yacht Mist would be relaunched in time to attend The Meet. A ten year renovation by boatbuilder John Krejsa was rumoured to be complete with Mist ready to retake the water at nearby Woodbridge. In the event it would be another three weeks before Mist was refloated. Ed Allen's Zircon, a Harrison Butler designed Z4, was also rumoured to be out and about. However, with tides to work, the time arrived for us to say goodbye to Galatea and head back down the Orwell.
