Bridge of Size

The bridge into Simpson Bay Lagoon feels tight even when we go through it and we have nothing to be concerned about. Some of the superyachts inch their way through at such a painfully slow pace that they appear jammed never to move again. Lots of boats amble up to the bridge and they always miss the entry opportunity. When they complain to bridge control over VHF they unleash a torrent of abuse from the bridge. Sometimes it’s third time lucky. Standard Dutch practice and familiar to anyone that has passed through Holland. We used to get yelled at on a regular basis up and down the waterweg.
