Re: Getting into PLymouth...
St Malo and CI is all so easy - the rocks never move, and the tides there to give you a helping hand. When you go ashore for lunch, some kind soul moves the beach closer to your boat for the return trip. The only slight issue is that so many of the ports are closed just when you want them, but other than that it's a snip!
Now, the East Coast, thats really tricky, little water when the tides in, less when it's out. The underwater bits all get up and move about, and it's all covered in mud. Now THAT is scary stuff!

Re: Gardener\'s World ...
NigeCh,
I agree with your final request for one magazine that encompasses a bit of everything, and suggest that I found it in the form of US magazine 'Sail', from when I was on a trip over there. I posted my thoughts on this and generally got slagged off for suggesting the Americans were doing a better job than us...
But I rarely buy a sailing magazine these days: YM probably best matches the kind of sailing I do but I've got fed up of the endless cycle of articles - how to lay-up in autumn, how to fit-out in spring, warm weather charters in winter and UK cruising in summer. I've read it all before.
