Menai Straits - 28th Dec

I see a lot of posts about Christmas trips over Christmas & New Year but most seem to be on the south coast and I really want to get out on the water - So I thought I would start a thread for the people further north.

It seems tide times are perfect for a mid day cruise for a few hours, so I thought I would see if anyone else has plans?

I have nothing planned for launching, or cruising area other than the Straits..

Possibly a problem with launching, maybe worth giving Chris a call to see if he is open. I would be up for it if anything happens

No plans but 27th or 28th are do-able for me. It will all depend on whether Chris is able to launch/recover us, I guess?

Well, that didn't last long! I've just been informed by the Leader of the Opposition that we've got a house full and doing family stuff on the 27th, so it's the 28th only for me!

28th is as good as any... I'm yet to see the new toy so thats a good enough reason to do the 28th.

Looking at 28th Dec HW is 14:30 so perfect to stop off at the Gazelle

Any news off Chris?
