Went to see old Harry in the Rib

Despite the poor weather so far this July we had a nice day out in the rib to see old Harry

I would say it is , used the slip with Rib and sib and never had any issues. River does get shallow though and the channel though poole harbour as well, at low tide stick to the middle.

Campsite is basic , clean toilet , loads of seasonal pitches. It's a nice walk down the river to wareham as well.

I think almost all tide states you could get out in a sib. We are very impressed with the camp site and an easy walk into Wareham. Lovely place to stay with a boat

I'm booked in week after next, hopefully get the sib out and give it a blast, subject to weather. Nice video BTW, Studland is stunning.

Thanks. Yes if you can get to Studland it is lovely and very sheltered. From Redcliffe farm slip Studland is about a 32 mile round trip
