Indicative tide times are shown on some of the club cruises. Please check them.

*If trip is cancelled an alternative meeting will be arranged for the same date (eg BBQ/restaurant/walk & pub lunch) - so its definitely worth putting the date in your diary.

LAST MINUTE PLANS

Some of the best trips are arranged at the last minute when there is more confidence in the conditions. A group trip can be more fun. Please make use of the Yahoo forum as well as the club notice board and our Friday evenings in the bar. Please keep in touch and contribute to our exchange of information.

2010 CRUISING PROGRAMMEŸ

In recent years we have had fewer club cruises to local destinations, particularly local drying harbours.

ŸOur membership has changed and we now see more longer cruises. These cruises sometimes involve travelling in company, sometimes are solitary and frequently involve meeting other PSC boats while on passage, often resulting in ad hoc social gatherings.Ÿ

In 2010 we have a limited number of local club cruises arranged at this time. We hope that this programme will be added to as the season progresses. To this end we must:-

ŸKeep in touch - tell others about your intentions, however provisional

ŸConsider initiating a local muster - day trip and barbecue - overnight at anchor - local harbour - treasure hunt -whatever

Although we have fewer local cruises please do get in touchif you are interested in cruising and meeting others while cruising.
