Woody on the Water
We are dinghy sailors who enjoy mostly leisure sailing (Dinghy Cruising) on our home waters in Essex.
The Nickname "Woody" came from the name of an early wooden GP14 "Woodstock" I used to own just as the channel started up and it just kind of stuck. We now sail on a few different types of dinghy. Why not join us on some of our adventures ?
I hope you enjoy the channel.
Woody. Always On A Journey
