2023 Rivers Ore and Alde Rally – All Welcome

7 July, 2023 - 11 July, 2023

2020 08 17 Up the Deben to Ramsholt 11

A brief exploration of the wonderful rivers Ore and Alde.

High Water over these days is around 1pm -3pm.
That they are Springs will add some which will mean we will need a reasonable wind forecast to make progress against the tide on the way up the coast from Harwich and on the way back.

And of course all subject to weather and what the winter does to the entrance!

More details to follow but an example plan, with a good offshore breeze and settled weather, might look something like this:

  • Thu 6th
    • 1800 Assemble around Harwich ready for departure Friday
  • Fri 7th
    • 0530 Depart around to start the passage with a bit of fair tide
    • Arrive Orford Haven Bar and enter the river and head for Butley River
  • Sat 8th
    • Visit Snape, drop back to Iken Cliffs overnight
  • Sun 9th
    • Aldeburgh or Orford
    • Drop back to Butley River
  • Mon 10th
    • Leave the river soon after LW if depths and weather allow and return Harwich
