Any interest or is this year having a break? Brexit won`t have happened even if it does on oct 31st and have been in Cherbourg twice this year: nothing has changed and the marine positively welcomes British yachts still.
 
Was there for the first time last week. Loved it. If only all our Solent marinas were so friendly and low cost. Date dependent, is be up for it.
 
Sounds like there is not a critical mass of boats to make a viable cruise so also backing out: I have the week ending 7/8th off work and plan an end of summer cruise with the option of Mrs Chubby joining me by land or ferry but we have to book things, so I am opting to go to Poole where I can go to the Boat Haven and Mrs C to the Hotel du Vin, less weather dependant, and have already done a long cross channel cruise with two visits to Cherbourg! This retains the option of a quick dash one weekend if excellent weather! I also have a more local CA rally on the 7/8th to go to which looks a more viable option.
 
As posted on the other thread we are having a long weekend that weekend and might pop over. It is a weekend from Plymouth so we could end up anywhere between Dover and Lands End on either side of Le Manche.
