Yes, you do. You're free to move between schengen countries without checking in or out. You need obviously to check out (of the schengen) before you come back to the UK. At least thats what I think i found out today. I was a bit lazy and have now done quite a bit of research. The last bit of the...

Would hope to get to Amsterdam but am thinking we have to check into Ijmuiden first somehow

Hi, We're planning to sail to the Baltic in April/May this year and are very confused as to the check in/check out paperwork etc. I can do the googling, if someone could just give me a few pointers where to look. I just find it incredibly confusing. Many thanks Jim & Pat Henry

Looking to enter the ore tomorrow at HW-1. Have only done it once before a few years ago and am still nervous. Have read the previous posts and downloaded sketch map, is everything as it should be, or has anyone anything to add ?

Depth at low water was 2.1m and we were on neaps at the time. In hindsight we would should have anchored a bit nearer the beach as we swung a little nearer the reef than we preferred. So on neaps and settled weather a keel depth of 1.45 should be absolutley fine. I think Blakeney does dry...

Just wanted some advice. I detest lugging the dinghy from below and blowing it up. Can anyone see any problem with gently going aground at Pin Mill an hour or so before low water, stepping off the boat when the waters subside, not bothering to anchor or tie up in anyway. Then visit the pub, have...

Kirby creek - where is it ? Dylan, Absolutley fab. We've gone aground twice trying to dinghy up there, let alone sail ! Third time lucky this year. Its' such a long walk to the pub from skipper's island anchorage, and if we can get to the quay it will probably mean only 10 mins ? Brilliant...

Southerlies Had a great time Tuesday. Drank far too much guiness and then went to the fox afterwards : disaster !
