Thanks for the heads up mate, I will try and set off an hour earlier if I can.

we got stuck in the traffic last Friday, about 3'ish I guess, took about 30mins from exit of Conwy tunnel to end of the que, but the later you get there the worse it will be.

hopefully we will be Caernarfon by midday, and won't be towing anyway, so A5 it is for us

Looks like I'll be launching at Ty Coch after all. Porth Daniel not sure they can accommodate me. Given the number of boats launching from there I guess it's a case of getting there as early as poss?

Yep most of us arriving on Friday will be having a little drinkie poo's, as most of us are staying at Travel Lodge and Premier inn at the marina we will most likely be hitting the pub restaurant there.

If anyone wants my mobile number please send me a P.M. it will make easier to find where we are.

Steve.

Hi, I was hoping to fill the rib up with fuel as close to Caernarfon as possible on Friday. Can anybody give some advice as to where the best place to do this is ?
