Scilly Islands

With the cruise to the Scilly Islands only a few weeks away I thought I'd start a thread to find out who's going ( I know its on the BIBOA website ) and from where in case we can meet up.

I'm leaving from Poole on the Saturday morning.

Cheers

Mark

Jason do you have the lat-long of this buoy to hand please?

-edit- found it. Your idea of launching into the Helford River looks better than a jaunt from Plymouth, i think 80miles before lands end is a bit too much for us. What slip were you thinking of using? There is one at Mylor that looks good, we'll meet up if that's OK....poss even on the M4?

Daniel and Bern/Jason
If you two boats meet up at Helston, I will ask Mag. A. to meet up with you and escort you to the Lizard.
Mark, Andy M. and I will meet you there and proceed.
All we want now is Roy's and Charles' input?

I'll post timings in a week or so.

Daniel,
We will be travelling to Cornwall during the early hours of Friday 30th April and plan to arrive around 10am April 30th. We have booked a weeks accommodation on the Helford River and have arranged for a launch, mooring, trailer storage and recovery through www.helford-river-boats.co.uk
There is also parking avaliable for your car if you decide to launch here.

Brian,
Thanks for the info.

Don't think i can afford the Friday off work, Tappy and I will leave Reading early enough on Saturday to launch and rendevouz with you guys. If i did sly off on the Thursday evening i think we would launch at Plymouth and yacht it round.

We'll meet on the water then.
