I will be launching very very early on Sunday before all He'll breaks out on the slip ways. Might be a touch launch if it's misty.
Best to be on the water tired than struck on the roads trying to get in.

There is some good concise info on there the main point seems to be launch early. Parking the car is not so clear! A lot of the road close at 8am but some roads appear to be open to park in like the Sea Front? I believe it might be easier to pay to go in a car park for the day and be done with it. There should be spaces around dawn?

Best place for you. You'd only be moaning about the grockles and the traffic if you'd attempted to get out on the water!

Great to see pics from Falmouth - we're going to be on the Thames on sat and sun this weekend to see some of them at this end of the country.

It's no Cornwall, but it will have to do...!
