On our way in to Guildford yesterday we had asked about mooring at Dapdune Wharf. They had politely declined, explaining that they had a steam boat festival on. We knew about the event and decided to walk back from our mooring to see it today. The event itself was a low key affair. A number of enthusiasts were tinkering with their steam powered boats. Rides on the boats seemed to be available, but we didn’t take the trouble to organise one for ourselves. It was warm enough on the bank, sitting next to a steam boiler didn’t really appeal.
