West Mersea Hard. Wyatts on the right and the Old Victory is in the centre. PEDRO in the foreground.

The white boat on the left behind PEDRO's mast is a former naval pinnace from Harwich - it had an Atlantic diesel.
Astern of PEDRO is the NOWSHERA, a converted ship's lifeboat.
Right, on the beach, is a wartime collapsible boat that has been opened out and a cabin fitted. [John Milgate]
