Advice On Where To Go.

Hi, I have just got a 3.85 metre Bombard Explorer 385 WB RIB with a Tohatsu 30hp 2-stroke outboard and I'm looking to use it in the sea but I haven't a clue where to go. I had been thinking of going to Devon or Cornwall and renting a cottage or something similar with some friends, so this needs to be considered also.

Any ideas please?

Thanks Kev

Hi and thanks for the quick reply. Any ideas on where you got the house rental from? There's 4 adults including myself and 2 children under 2.

My missus always tell me where to go! (but it wouldnt be appropriate to write such expletives here !)

This is a great place;
