Scarborough to Bridlington


In the morning, we took the open topped bus to the north bay and then back exploring the town of Scarborough right along the prom. 
 We did find a really old fashioned, but wonderful yacht chandlers on the front. Peter H did purchase some shock  cord and you really can't have too much.
We had an early lunch in a tea shop of a bowl of tasty vegetable soup and a roll before setting out from Scarborough. 
We were followed out by the tourist speed boat and the miniature square rigged boat. One sped around the bay at 15knots, whilst the other bobbed gently. 
We set our course for the headland, passing Filey and then, Flamborough head. I had telephoned ahead from Scarborough, so the Bridlington Harbour Master was on the pontoon to greet us, and take the money. This was just as well as we arrived during the regatta and the harbour & pontoons were very busy 

We called in the Royal Yorkshire YC for a shower, and in the evening ate in a restaurant overlooking the harbour. I had the  scollops as a starter and then we both had steak pie. All rather pleasant.
