Re: Scrubbing woods

No need a few more years of global warming and we will be able to float the club house, and we won't need all those yard trailers just a lot of mooring posts. Glasson could become an island paradise complete with palm trees and tropical fish places on the bund would be at a premium.

You may already know castle town harbor dries out so you need long mooring lines and some say 56lb weights to slide down them to take up the slack at high water, its also a good idea to take a 2m length of scaffolding plank with a couple of hol...

WARNING don't pass too close to one Ian and I got tethered to one by our prop getting caught up in some fishing net trailing from it. It took the lifeboat to cut us free. We could not get near the stern of our boat because the aerial was trying to spear us due to the swell and fast running tide. The...

Re: A Trip out to the Lighthouse

Great film John good clear pictures would be useful if you could film the channel at low tide. How far away from you can it fly under control ?
Wishing you all the best sailing for 2017. I hope to attend the Conway river festival this year.
