First boating trip...*cornwall*

[Jonny2018]

I've just sold the rib and brought a Fletcher 18gts.
I've been out and about coastal on various sea trials.
Now I'm planning to take her a little further out. I plan to go along the coast from the boat yard in Wadebridge then out to Lundy Island which lies 12 miles off the coast.
So if anyone can answer the following I'd be grateful.
First is the Fletcher 18gts even capable of going out on the open sea?
Can the dock at Lundy be used publicly? Or is there a tender service?
From there I plan to go to ilfracombe for something to eat, again is there a dock?
I then plan to moor/anchor I know of a sheltered cove close to Rock but does anyone know of one I can drop anchor for the night between rock and ilfracombe?
Is there anywhere along the way for refuelling if needed?
Thanks for any help/tips

You might be better posting this in the Bristol Channel forum.

I wouldn't attempt that trip in an 18ft speed boat, you can get quite a swell around Lundy
There is a dock but you can't leave your boat there, you need to anchor or pick up a bouy
Ilfracombe's drying harbour wil accommodate you so long as you are happy for the boat to tip over on its side when the tide goes out
No petrol That I know of
Again, I would reconsider my plans in a boat that isn't really suitable for anything "outside of the bay"
