Beautiful Seabreeze!

This weekend will be the annual Three Rivers Race - Europe's toughest inland sailing race, run by Horning Sailing Club. There will be around 100 sailing boats starting in roughly ten boat Groups from 11:00 to 12:30 on the 1st June at Horning Sailing club.

The race course covers over 50 miles, starting and finishing at Horning Sailing Club and comprising 3 different rivers: the Bure, Ant and Thurne. During the race competitors must navigate three bridges at Potter Heigham and Acle. The lowering of masts is the ultimate test of skill and makes for fantastic viewing throughout the race. From their individual start each competitor has up to 24 hours to complete the course. Many sail through the night and returning for full English breakfast some time in the early morning!

For those who wish to Watch by foot or car, best viewing points are:
* The Swan Green, at the start and any pub in Horning,
* Ludham bridge, about a hour onwards after the first start,
* St Benets Abbey,
* Acle Bridge, and pub
* Stokesby by the pub,
* Thurne Lion D**e, by the windpump.
* And the popular one Heigham bridge, and the river banks either side of the Thurne there (in normal wind conditions 4 hours after the start onwards).

Why not enjoy a drink at one of the pubs nearby, and try to catch sight of one of the 100 boats? Good luck to anyone taking part.
