Help anyone?

it aint easy!

they won't take advance bookings, you just gotta turn up and see what you can sort.

Matt and I were lucky last year, we each got a permanent berth holders place, as the regular occupants were away avoiding the Cowes powerboat week.

we'll be trying to get a similar deal again this year.

Do you think you'll make all the way to Cowes?

didn't wanna dissapoint!

ya tetchy norvern git.



Loz, for me old, slow, noisy, smelly, smokey clanker, it was about 23 quid a night.

for an ultra reliable 6 million hp drag motor powered, 500mph mirror dinghy, it'll be a little less.

Although prices are based on 'displacement', so you could be in trouble!
