Evening Lads,
I've been looking to visit Lundy myself, It's about 45nm from me, and never been there before(shamefull). I guess it must be more like 60kn for you lads though, It would be great to time my voyage with your's and maybe meet you lads down there, although I was thinking of traveling back the same day, be even better if I could find some others from Pemb's willing to cruise down with me. I could also offer a free crew position/position's for anyone wanting to travel with me.


Regards
Paul.

If I could get a trailer to borrow for a couple of days. I would love to bring the Parker up and do this. As a lad from Bristo,l this is home water and I have not been over to Lundy for about 30 years.
A little too far to motor round ....

That will be a good trip Maximus wish I was down your neck of the woods as I would be off with you I've been there on a charter boat and spent the day there and loved it. Field for tents is just a stones throw away from the pub

Distance obviously depends on the Route,but it's nice to take in some of the North Devon Coastline.... at least on the outward journey.Would'nt be too far out at 60 miles.
The Marina slip is Fav as you have a much better window for getting in and out,and no tide to contend with.Pluss the Trailer park is much more secure!
If memory serves Lauching is around £18,but I will check.
