Mmmmm We did have a Charity run from Hope Cove to Salcombe with a load of Rotary people on board a Banana behind the outboard race boat - even with a small prop on it was difficult to get it going on the plane slow enough! They were knackered by the time the got to Salcombe! It seems to have...

Another for Plymouth Sailing school!

This and other concerns about encouraging others to speed was brought up in the meeting. Essentially offenders would have their membership of the club revoked and if non members were to ski in the area they would be dealt with by the Harbour Master in the normal way, members would be encouraged...

Would like to see that! In fact of the two areas only one boat will be in operation at any one time and noisy two strokes will be banned leaving four stroke or EPA two stroke engines only. After the Harbour Board subject to approval we hope to run some trials so that everyone involved can see...

It's going to be a compromise if it gets through - no doubt there will be bucket loads of nimbyism and that is to be expected - some might even see it as the beginning of the end! The idea is to have a pontoon between the areas and have one boat at a time on each - the northern side will be...

Bantham is just down the road from my office and I frequently walk the dog on the extensive beach at various states of the tide - Whilst the charts will show the average course of the channel I wouldn't trust anything very muchg by the amount of sand that moves around on there, best bet is...

Why the long wait? There are a number of other options available ex stock - having said that the power pack would probably do for now and it would be a useful item to have on board.
