Hull

Hull will most probably be the final stop over point on our big trip next summer. We have spent a fair amount of time in Hull over the years and the marina offers excellent facilities for the boater including cheap fuel. Despite some of the stick Hull seems to get from people we actually quite enjoy it there and find the place to be really friendly and full of good pubs and shops. 

By the time we head into Hull we will hopefully have completed many miles of cruising on the east coast and this will very much feel like the last stop before home cruising familiar waterways. The river will also no doubt feel very small after our coastal holiday. 

 The last set of pier heads to aim for.

 The large lock at the entrance to Hull Marina with its radial gates.

 Hull Marina with its excellent modern facilities right in the heart of the city.

 Excellent shopping just over the road from the marina.

The Deep at the entrance to the River Hull. If time allows we may have another look at this aquarium, hopefully it will be a little quieter this time!!
