I will be down in Dartmouth from thursday until the following tuesday. Hopefully I should be able to raft along side someone at the visitors pontoon. I understand it is on a first come first served basis?

No,over in the marina, thats Henri Lloyd (Melges 24) on the swing moorings

I had the same type of Melges,but when sold, keep the hoist to put the Solent on, 30 secs to launch, and saves so much damage

You out in the bay for the regatta ??
