A couple of ideas:
Teignmouth/Shaldon to stay Polly Steps (Teign Estuary) for the free concrete slip. Slip is usable at most stages of tide just not quite at bottom, allow an hour each side of low to be safe. From there you can take the SIB to the Exe estuary one way or Torbay (I prefer this) the other way, catch yourself some mackerel or stop off for refreshments in Babbacombe 'Cary Arms'
Totnes to stay/Totnes for slip - Max.. and others might know more about this, Totnes at top end of River Dart (speed limit 6 knots from memory) which will take you down to Dartmouth by way of some nice stop offs and pubs(Dittisham). Slip is definitely not usable at low water - an hour each side - I can tell you first hand (muddy hand)
Can't help you much with accommodation, my cousin works in the caravan industry so if that suits I could provide some pointers there, plenty of BnB's to choose from but book early
Both slips have adjacent car parks, arrive early as they are popular due to free slip. Worth a mention is Brixham which has a very expensive car park and a paying slip, you can put in here and either go into Torbay or towards Dartmouth
The Exe and Teign estuary are fast moving rivers, so caution there, the Exe has a sandbar with breaking waves at it's channel entrance for deeper keeled boats. I only got so far with my exploring in that area, chickened out/wisely said enough when I found the sand bars. Locals cut across so it's doable but research first. I've heard of quite a few incidents without too much detail in the areas I've mentioned too, as with any sea going please take care. Not wanting to put you off it's a beautiful part of the world
Hope that's a good start
