Therefore leaving beaumaris at 12 (but be ready by 11.30 id say to be sure not to miss them.) We then have 7hrs to get round to the bridges again, easy.

Aha, don't worry, the landlords will serve if you wish as it's a hotel. Drinking hours are....flexible.

I'd meant its just a rule I have on board the boat!... Though it was broken on the last cruise! We opened up the engine, took a celebratory swig and my cap flew off in to the deep blue. A false start!!

Just so as people know this thread is about a cruise....plus ribcraftsteve is hoping to come too!

Main Launch site Map and contact number for Chris's place below.
Ronnies Caernarfon[slipway] - Boatlaunch

For evening Hog Roast, PM Kerny on here. £12 pp at Paddy's bar a mile or so from the launch site and Caernarfon itself I believe. Cheques sent to John McGrath, with name on the reverse and confirm you've sent to Kerny.

Coed Helen caravan park,

LL54 5PS

Departure 11am on Sat 28th April. Heading anticlockwise round the Island. Boats at Menai or Beaumaris need to be in the water waiting by 11.30, or you may miss the pack coming through.

If too rough on the NE of the Island. We split or all head back, before or after Puffin Island, heading back down the Strait and round the SW side of the Island.
