hi, will be taking the little rib down to torbay on saturday and was wondering what the best launch site would be. i was thinking torquay but would parking be hard to come by at this time of year?
New slip at Torquay Harbour, 100 yrds from Harbour Office (01803 292 429). Phone them for info. Trailer and car parking on site.
Happy boating

Good evening, firefly is correct the new slip in Torquay is very good. D2 marine could also look after your trailer for you if you are planning on leaving the rib in the water. Hope that helps.... Might see you out there!
I've been lucky this season then! Launched & recovered 3 times at weeekeneds when tides in Dart were not favourable -no-one around monitoring slip / taking fees. Was surprised, I''m quite (well not really) happy to pay to use facilities!
Used the slip last month, you launch, leave the trailer on the trailer park then move the car up to one of teh towns car parks. The car park overlooking the slip was £7 for the day. You can lock the trailer to a chain than runs the length of the park or just stick a hitch lock on, or leave it without. It's a barriereied area.
