Launch plans at Sandy Beach (2m from Holyhead) is for boats to launch at 8.45am tomorrow. We are going to head anti-clockwise around Anglesey to rendezvous with the main launch in the straits.

What can possibly go wrong?

Guys
The weather looks great for Today
However bear this in mind
Big tide so watch it in the overfalls
Plus
There is no Fairway bouy off Caernarfon, the Southern end if you are using it as a guide into the Strait, it has gone awol, well the base is there!!
Plus the latest 'Notice to Mariners' from Caernarfon Harbour Trust, says basically 'We Don't know where the sand bars are lads, we are gonna survey them asap' kinda
So keep a good look out and go a bit slowish!
Out there yesterday I noticed that it was a bit shallow by C3 the second green un as you come in at 2 hours ish after high water
So don't stray to Port too much
Cheers
K
