One lovely sunny summers morning I was on Everards Smultaneity heading south off Sheringham Norfolk when the mate and I looked aft and saw a ship bearing down on us, heading for our stern. We had to alter course to get out of its way. We looked at the bridge as it was passing and there was nobody on the bridge. Then somebody came out of the accommodation from under the bridge saw us and waved, oblivious of the near miss. This was in 1965.
