Here you are, John
"Sea Fever Festival 2002 31st August - 1st September 2002

The Hull Marina comes alive with open-air performances of Sea Shanties and Sea Songs, against a backdrop of traditional sailing vessels to provide a weekend of fun for all the family.

The crafts marquee features the arts of maritime woodcarving, coracle making, rope-craft and the secrets of ship bottling, with additional stalls representing the RLNI, Ocean Youth Trust, the Humber Pilots, the Mission to Seafarers and much more.

There is also a children's activity area featuring pirate workshops, sing-arounds, children's games and maritime puzzles, bouncy castle and street entertainment with Lord Nelson and the nautical press gang.

The premier shanty event in the UK. For further details, please contact Shanty Jack."
