Extended Cruise

23rd - 26 May
1823259 1024xdne

Over the late May Bank Holiday weekend it is intended to run an extended cruise beyond the Solent.  The exact destination will depend upon weather.  If the conditions are right we would aim to meet in Yarmouth on Friday evening, ready to leave early Saturday morning for Cherbourg.  Saturday evening and Sunday would be layover days and we would sail back on the Monday.

Tides:

  • Friday 23rd May HW Portsmouth 0841 which would enable a leisurely sail down to Yarmouth in the afternoon
  • Saturday 24th May HW Portsmouth 0934.  This would give us a departure time from Yarmouth of around 0730 just as the tide is turning and an arrival time in Cherbourg around 12 hours later. 
  • Saturday drinks and a meal in the Capitainerie Cherbourg Marina
  • Sunday 25th May lazy day and exploration with an evening meal together
  • Monday 26th May LW (not HW) Portsmouth 1644.    We would depart around 0600 (UK time) to get us to the Needles in time for the tide back down the Solent

The alternative to Cherbourg is Alderney depending on wind direction. 

Help and advice will be provided to all taking part on booking in and out of UK and in and out of France.
