There are also 2 runners on the North side of the jetty if you want to beach, tie up and pull your boat out to stop drying out. There's a clear rock free run up to the wall of the pub. Watch the rocks further north of the width of the pub v close inshore by the shed and trees.
thanks for the info Paul, hopefully it wont be too long before we can try the runners out next season

sorry for the poor picture quality, taken from just off the Gazelle

I've also attached a photo taken from the end of the pier looking across to the Gazelle, I think you can see the warm welcome you will receive if mooring to the pier

Don't apologise - just seeing all those pubs woke me up from hibernation! Would welcome a start of season bash to look forward to though. Hoping to park a tin shed near Newborough for the season - can't wait!
