Travels of the Yacht 'Elver' on the Essex coast
One of a series of films recording the travels of the schooner Elver, her owner V.B. Harrison, crew and guests. Scenes are shot from the Elver including adjustment of sails, sea, waves, buoys, coastline and passing boats, sometimes close enough to see crew in detail. Scenes include: a lively beach scene with John Potter who taught Mr Harrison to sail; pier with roller coaster and amusements – the place is not identified but looks like Clacton; children John and Susan in the dinghy and on board Elver; Heybridge and Osea Island as seen from the yacht; yachts Amasis and White Rose.
