Lady Cate blog introduction

Here is the lovely Lady Cate. She is an Otter 36ft twin diesel motor yacht. She has two double cabins, both en-suite and one with a shower, and a large wheelhouse, with an extra berth. Built in 1967 she is 20 years younger than me but is already a great classic boat. 

I bought her on 1st August 2015 and practically live on her now.

I am keeping her at The Granary Marina in Melton, Suffolk,UK on the beautiful River Deben. There is a very friendly community here. The boats include some real classic East coast gems, especially the lovely Blackthorne, a small Thames barge. The views are fabulous and there is a wonderful variety of bird life. It's like being on a happy holiday all the time.

I plan to write a blog about her and her travels, mainly for my family and friends but also for boat-folk who might be interested in the journeys and the technical stuff.

This is my first post, so I'm learning my way. Another journey to blog about.

Cheers for now.
