These photos of cobles sailing shared by members of the Bridlington Sailing Coble Preservation Society are a delight. Cobles under sail have been a pretty rare sight for many decades and require particular skills – and I’ve seen only a fairly small number of photographs depicting them taken in the modern era.
Coble enthusiasts are looking forward to the town’s second Sailing Coble Festival on the 1st and 2nd July.
Facebookers might like to know that the society also has a Facebook page that has some very good photos.
