Can someone tell me the depth at the quay HWN & HWS is it possible to dry out either on the inside or outside of the key, whats the bottom like and should I clear it with George prior to going alongside.

If you have not asked don't even bother. George has all the boats who want to go alongside in his book. He will tell you if its possible or not and how long. Depth is fine wait till after high water and keep going until you stop. Check the tide table and make sure that the next tide will be the same or higher
You need plenty of fenders and watch the slipway on the way in. If you come in on a falling tide then it should push you onto the wall. If its blowing then you will need to get your lines sorted as George is not getting any younger. Bottom is very hard but the end is mud . The water goes out to the end of the quay . There is NO Water on the Quay apart from the tap at the pub. No electric either.
