Well the plan was to cover the 100nm across Gardigan Bay this afternoon and look towards anchoring/camping at Port Dinorwic, and return on the Sunday, however we did'nt fancy the return journey with the forcasted Sunday conditions . so hope you all have a great day tomorrow and look forward to meeting you all some other time.
Hopfully have a braked trailer sorted soon so won't be so restricted on launch sites.

Looks like you all had a good time out there. Will have to make the next one. Have to fly out to Esberg tomorrow to go play on works boat for another month. All the best and glad everyone enjoyed it. Will be launching from Bull Bay again after April so hopefully see some of you there.

Cracking turn out of over 25 boats beating last years 18. That despite gale warnings from the CG. A great effort from everyone who came and all got out and back safely whilst teaming up in small groups. I don't think anyone was left alone and many small boats had crew put on larger ones when it got too much. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and will organise again next year.

Big thanks to Chris for launching the bulk of us, not easy. Us also a cracking evening do arranged by those at Coed Helen. Hog roast, karaoke, music and a projector with photos of the day. Top work and greatly appreciated.

We turned the strait white and everyone got through the swellies with props in tact!!!!
