So why are there so few Dinghy Sailing clubs along the Lincolnshire coastline? Norfolk.. You cant throw a stick without it landing in a dinghy park.. but Lincolnshire has so few.. Why?

Looking at Google maps it could be because there are very few towns, beaches (other than at skewness) nor harbours

Back in the 70s in the Enterprise World Grimsby and Cleethorpes Sailing Club was as hot as it could be.

Dunno what it's like now tho

the Lincolnshire coast is not favourable to sailing , unlike the creeks and harbours of the NW Norlfolk coast that fill up quite nicely at high tide or beaches like Snet that allow access to reasonable amounts of water t most states of the tide ...
