They're actually quite safety aware - they just assume that you are too. I found their entire approach to safety quite refreshing - it's nice not to be treated like a suicidal lemming

Well I had my holiday a while back now and got my boat all wind swept and salty. I was asked to provide some pics and having got bored out of my mind today, decided to make a video using the clips I took on my phone. Never did get to do the bay crossing I intended due to crap weather or timing of it not being crap weather.

Anyway....



Matt

That vid of Helford side looks perfect, even when you nosed out of the mouth. Why didn't you flip across the Bay?

How did you get the vid of Mollulnan? Trailer it around to Fal?

I was gutted tbh, it wasn't supposed to be that nice. Had gone out on my own so left I time I would be back, would have missed it (no phone signal) and would have been pushing it for fuel. By the time I'd gone back, updated and got some fuel my boat had dried out at it's mooring The weather went right down hill in the afternoon.

The vid on the Falmouth side was taken on the first day, left early so I could have a bit of fun before getting access to the holiday cottage. Tried launching at Mylor first but was a low spring tide so took it to Falmouth and paid.
