Not Glos. canal I'm afraid ol mate... saw your post for sail info on P.B.O. I would check out e-bay, I've picked up excellent sails there, but you have to be patient. Merry Crimbo... Tony. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Hi mate, I think it's Bude, looking inland from near the sea lock. Is that still the Bristol channel? I thought my picture of Instow was pushing things!
Hope Christmas is going well for everyone.

Yep...the forum has now decided the Bristol Channel is defined as sea area Lundy...so who's for Bude this year? (I understand if you call the harbour master wanting to come in from seaward, he says "are you sure!!" Of course that could just be cunning plan to keep its pleasures all to himself /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif)
