CRUISE TO SOUTHPORT AND DOVER


Richard and Shona Taylor onboard Easting Down are our Cruise Contacts for this cruise and have a wealth of  knowledge and experience to share. 

The  plan is, ofcourse, subject to the weather. 

Tue 27th ... Departure from Kettering at 1000 hours and heading for eiher Mickeys or Butlers Beach

Wed 28th ... Move onto Recherche Bay with the Coal Bins, Pigsties, Sayers Beach for anchorages for a night or two

Fri 30th ... Move up to Southport and into Deep Hole anchorage for the night

Sat 31st ... Move up to Dover for New Year's Eve. In the afternoon join with our very generous members Tolly and Josephine, hosting a BYO get togewther ashore at their holiday home on Hopetoun Beach. Stay tuned for activities later that night.

Sun 1st Jan ... A New Years Day bbq lunch ashore at Rabbit Island

Mon 2nd ... Time to start heading home. 

There is full VHF reception with Tas Maritime along with mobile phone coverage pretty well everywhere. Some supplies could be available in Southport and Dover but best to be prepared and bring everything you could need.. Expect lots of opportunities for a chat about weather helm, prop shaft vibrations, flogging halyards, how the anchor held, why there is water in the dinghy, the size of the flathead and how tasty the offerings were at sundowners last night!

An updated plan will be forwarded to those registered a few days before departure.

Register now if you want to come along.
