The Marine conservation Society visited the boat club today, as part of their survey of non native species.

They found Bay Barnacles (Amphibalanus improvisus) from North America, thought to have been brought over in the 1800s. And is the only barnacle that lives in estuaries.
And
Tube worms (Fincopomatus enigmaticus)which are originally found in the Southern Hemisphere but are now very common and thriving here.
