Some of the vessels on the River Ancholme in Brigg have now gone away for the Winter season. The vessels were put into the river by a large crane on the 1st May, just as the summer was starting. Not all of the boats come of the River, boat-owners can moor their vessel near the Leisure Centre throughout the winter, where the water is much deeper - or they can go downstream to South Ferriby, where vessels stay on the water all year round. Some people in the larger vessels decide to cross the North Sea and visit some European destinations, such as Amsterdam, and Spain. The new edition of the Ancholme Newsletter, produced by myself - will be available next Spring.
