North Wales RIB/ Boat event

I hadn't planned on the Boat Show yet but the Boat Jumble event at Bodelwyddan Castle

http://http://www.warnerleisurehotel.../Location/1158

on Sunday 19th July will be a very worthwhile visit for anyone interested in RIBs or boating in general

See you there

North Wales Boat Jumble...this Sunday

The North Wales boat jumble has changed venue and organisers this year...
It is now going to be held in Bodelwyddan Castle this Sunday the 20th .
Bodelwyddan Castle is on the A55 and close to Rhyl and St Asaph.
It kicks off at 10 am.

Bought many a bargain from previous shows, this year will be better as many chandlers has a lot of extra stock to sell on

Ged,
I'm not able to get over to the boat jumble until about 12ish. What sort of time does it wrap up? I'm just wondering whether it'll be worth going or whether I'll have missed everything.

I believe that the N. Wales venue had to be changed from Anglesey as last year the cops were not happy when tractors had to pull cars of the field directly onto a busy road. Mud and Sh*t every it was a right cock-up!!

The new venue is in a proper show field, well drained and used by all the big shows
