Nice one I will start saving up then.

[kerny]

Is the gazelle car park safe enough to leave my rib or would you recommend putting it in storage, and if so where and how much. ?

[HUMBER P4VWL]

Can't guarantee it, but should be fine. Just have a hitch lock/wheel clamp. Boat may need to go in top car park. Landlady leaves end of march. Not sure who new ones are yet?

[kerny]

Cheers Paul, I've got wheelclamp hitchlock ect. She did tell me that she was leaving but wasn't sure when. I hope the prices stay the same, she wouldn't take a deposit off me.

Count me in!! ... and probably Humper2 also, but I have texted him about it so he can log on and confirm himself. May round up a few more from Trearddur Bay too who may not use this site. I Will be coming from Trearddur but will come down to the Gazelle for the start and if we go to Nefyn, depart the group prior to Llanwyn on the way back and head off back to Trearddur. If weather/wind isn't suitable for Nefyn, I'm sure I'll get down to Gazelle anyway (being in a n Osprey ) and will join you wherever you decide to go

[HUMBER P4VWL]

cheers mono Mickey and humper2. Be great to see you, developing in to a right rabble! On iPhone at mo, will update the list!

Dear all, remember that Porth Daniel in Menai Bridge which is almost fully tidal said . "We would be able to accommodate 20 plus boats overnight. Overnight storage and launch would be £26 (which includes parking for the car and trailer for the day)" Not bad as usually £35 for just launch and recovery. Places to stay in Menai.

Also ABC marine at Beaumaris, which has plenty of probably nicer places to stay will do week end storage for £35. 3 days 3 nights. You can launch as often as you want about 2 hours either side of high tide. Or they will launch you for a fee.

Tony T and Kerny, it might be a good idea at low tide on Fri or Sat to clear the seaweed off the runner in front of the gazelle. Then that could be used as well as the jetty.

[kerny]

We have one of those here - Port na Blagh!

The council revamped the old quay, built a bi-level quay with a slip and "carpark" at the upper level - it slopes upwards towards the access road. On springs, the water rises halfway up the "carpark" bit. Of course, they'd put up warning signs, wouldn't they?

No

My inlaws live in Highley, just outside the village on the river side near the severn valley steam railway. Its worse than Shrewsbury.
