Launching on the Humber Estuary

Do any forum members launch from the Humber estuary? am planning some navigation training etc there have used Humber recue up stream under the bridge but wondered if there was some good slips near the mouth on the south side?

Simon,

I've used Humber Rescues slip before as well.

I understand there are some slips in Cleethorpes but have never tried them.

I presume you have checked www.boatlaunch.co.uk ?

Cheers

Mike
