Queenborough ATL

[MoodySabre]

At the beginning of April we might be bringing Chattinglil's Achilles 24 from St Kats to the Crouch via Havengore. So a stop for the night on Qboro looks likely. Due to the limited facilities on that fine craft we shall need to use the landing. If we don't have a dinghy with us is there any problem with stopping on the hammerhead, perhaps overnight, that early in the season?

Can't answer your specific question Roger but remember that the navigation lights are still not working.

We stayed on there back in October with no problem. The website says you can overnight.

Thanks - eventually found NtM week 13. Hope not be sailing in the dark - something will have gone wrong!

 

[MoodySabre]

Thanks Suttle - will contact them nearer the time.

I'd be happy to assist with boat and 3.2m rib. Generally if meeting mates you are better off grabbing one of the big grey buoys and rafting up.

Laying alongside the ATL even in the depths of winter can lead to large steel boat with car tyres for fenders coming along side.......or a local sailing school boat! Best avoided.

Would be nice to say hello to Lisa again following move from MYC.

thanks to everyone for organising me!


we will def want to get ashore. as much as I love roger I don't fancy sharing the portaloo with him in the equivalent of a 2man bivouac. Let alone sleeping top to toe.

Dave - it would be great to meet up again. We are planning on being there the evening of Saturday 6th April.

Slight drift bu when we were there in October being lazy went in the pub at the top of the hard. The lighting was poor and they put a candle on our table, now I know why!!
