I was there - staying in Gillan, slipped the mooring about 3 minutes before they started and swallowed most of Falmouth Bay getting past Pendennis point in about 6 minutes or so....I stopped looking at the GPS to see the speed and concentrated on hanging on.
The Red Arrows were fantastic, being in the harbour makes you feel like your in the display, the Goose was particularly impressive....(Very impressive at just a few hundred feet over your head).
Saw quite a few Ribs, I arrived late..... everyone was anchored/moored up....most people had drinks in their hands! Always next year - and arriving in better time.

If you fancy a trip back over the border I would probably be able to sort out a ride in the new boat on Saturday or Sunday - we've got a party in Salcombe on Saturday night as well!
