I'd start with somewhere with enough water...

Ribnut, its just my very humble opinion but for a great summer cruise with lots of pubs and some decent eateries you can't beat the Firth of Clyde. If you get the good conditions there are loads of places to explore and plenty of places to tie up and have a wander around.
Fantastic scenery too: great if you want some dramatic photos

Forget the Lake District: the 10mph speed limit has killed it stone dead

I think that the Cornish boys will back me up here (not too closely, I hope). The Fal Estuary has it all. Beautiful scenery, beaches, pubs and retaurants. Good marinas and launching. That's all without leaving the harbour, seriously! 72m of waterway within the Fal estuary. Leave the Carrick roads for the Helford (Frenchman's Creek), The Lizard or up to Fowey which is 18 each way of easy cruising. For the more ambitous there are the Scillies, 70m round trip of semi-offshore work. Blimey, the Fal tourist board ought to pay me for this.

Hey Garf, You're assumin' that we want you English tossers down 'ere! . Agreed it is a drag for you lot. A303 has been dug up again! As for the Solent, tried that when I trialed my boat. Sod that!! That is the M25 of boating, at rush hour, with nothing but blonde birds behind the wheel!!
