River Colne, Friday 10th June.

We based our departure time on the same tidal height as when we entered on Wednesday, this occurred at 13-25 on the Friday.  A gentle motor up the river, taking the flood tide towards Wivenhoe followed. We touched the bottom briefly near buoy 29 prior to passing through the flood barrier with good views of the village and of the many mud berths along the shore. We finally ran out of water, so turned round and retraced our route, eventually anchoring in Pyfleet Creek for a quiet night on the hook.
