We ushaly manage to get to the Helford every other year, great place and some great photos.
Does the saling club still do good food, we were recomended it some years ago and had what was probably the best steak i have ever had.

Was there for Falmouth week last year and the food was OK. Might be better away from the regatta but I* guess that like toe RCYC it struggles to keep a good chef through the winter.

Nice photos, Dylan. Thanks for posting them. I had a mate John up there somewhere (Sunny Corner?), and whose wife did lovely paintings of the area. Auld lang syne now, though.

I guess they eat the mullet then? I have caught them on rod and line but never tackled one because of the mixed reports about the eating; or is it just the fish that feed on harbour/marina detritus that should be avoided?
You never see a Frenchman taking them - that always alarms me
Better than bass in my opinion.

The term 'snap' does not do your photographs justice. Call them photos at least.

Is the Port Navas yacht club now shut? I remember it getting great reviews for its catering quite a few years back.
I imagine it's not very pleasant in the lower reaches of the river today with these strong easterlies.

In a proper gale there can be a surge, the creek outside the Shipwrights went from 6ft to nearly dry, then came back again, smashed some small boats.
