What you will be able to see

Raymond will be open for inspection and you will be able to explore the cabin. Many of these Shows also include a boat procession when Nutfield will be towing Raymond.

We will have a stand where we will be selling a range of souvenirs including the now famous "Kearley and Tonge Plum & Apple Jam" (see the History section!)

* The 50th anniversary of Raymond's launch was celebrated and
there was a Member's Meeting.
