launching sites in Cornwall

req:

launch and retrieval on all states of tide.
can safely leave wagon and trailer unattended for a few days.

Fowey is looking like the best I can find, any other ideas in that area?

TIA

Under the Tamar Bridge at Saltash is good for what you need free parking and a pontoon . Also plenty of cruising in the sound or up river if the weather is crap . Fowey and back an easy days cruise .

Looe has a Good slip and parking but the slip is only good 2 hrs either side of HW Will only cost about £5 to park all day

Penmarlem on the opposite bank to Fowey is good and totally secure with a pontoon. , the slip is very long and steep if you don;t have a 4wd £750 a day

thanks guys, much appreciated.

£7.50 seems a better deal than £750 - I guess the holiday season is over?
;-)

would be leaving car'n'trailer for a few days tho, hence my security concerns

yes you can leave your car a nd trailer there for a few days, (penmarlem campsite,which is the entrance to the slip) 7.50 for the day. take change as you will need it for the electric gate,,, a little steep, but clean and dry, and there is generally help there!! have fun
