Also I talked to the workshop boys on the pier and they said you don't pay to launch as there is never anyone there. Just to park which is £35 for 2 bays for 3days.

Is that boat and trailer? I thought that we paid more than that the last time that we used PZ.

We paid £45 for boat and trailer couple of years ago

It's £5:20 per space per 24hrs and we will be taking up to bays. I rang the number on the pay and display and was told to book it using the Ringo number. I believe there is an extra 20p admin charge. However I would not be surprised that a trailers is classed as something different!!

When I spoke to the local council they said we need to use the ringo number twice, once for the car and then again for the trailer.

Hi looking at the weather it's looking fair to good.

Fri light SSW winds probably mod at times in the open water. Patchy cloud poss shower and a small chop with a long weak w ground swell.

Sat light var winds but poss mod sea breezes in the exposed areas of the Scillies. Calm seas.

Sun is OK but I am looking at just how quick that flabby low develops. At the moment it's not meant to deepen till Sunday evening into Monday but there is the prospect for it to do so earlier giving a mod to fresh S-SSW Force 4,5 on Sunday morning.

If it changes I will keep you all up to date.

whisper · 23 July 2013, 16:26

Thanks Adam

I'm really looking forward to this and to meeting some new faces

Adamn · 23 July 2013, 20:51

Hi all XC Weather does over cook the wind strength but it is picking up the prospect of that low deepening on Sunday!
Below is the chart for 13:00.
What the computer is picking up is a squeeze of the isobars as the low meanders off the SW coast of Ireland.
I am hopeful that it will remain a F3 for the crossing back.

Still looks OK. It's all in the s/sw this week which is good. A strengthening 3 on Sun should be ok as we should be back before the sea builds significantly.

However, my BBC weather app is showing the wind going around SSE on Sun, we could do without that.

Flat is boring.
