you can also launch at Woolverstone but I think it is more expensive than Levington;however the slip is best at or around high water with no cable assist ;

see below for the slip at Levington

Daniel,
It would be good if you join the southend air show on the 30th. Unfortunately it does seem to be attracting little interest.

I think you'll find 14.06 referred to 2003! An old thread was dredged up and on the back of it a cruise for 29.05.04 seems to happening. Cool!

The cruise from Levington is provisionally scheduled for Saturday 29th May, and the trip to Southend air show the next day, Sunday 30th May. Both trips will take place in the current year, 2004.

Well, Wayne will be there from 12.00 which would also give Daniel time to sell his car and just enough to allow Kelly to pack your sandwiches

You'll probably find that Levington is quicker to get to than Bradwell! I used to keep RIBS at both Upminster (Jn 28 M25) and Witham and could get from either place to Levington quicker cos it was dual carriageway as opposed to windy essex country lanes!
