Bembridge Mid-Week Potter Provisional

Mid Week potter to Bembridge, with lunch at the Brading Haven Yacht Club. Carry the tide in from about 12:00 noon and leave before about 1600, depending on your draft. Check the tide gauge NW of St Helens Fort before entering. Berthing on the Duver pontoon under the direction of the berthing staff (pre-booking is not possible for short stays. skippers to settle their fees individually). For those who have never been to Bembridge, it is a very pleasant walk from the Duver moorings to Brading Haven YC along the causeway containing the pound for the now defunct tide mill. Alternatively, there is a Water Taxi, which would be quicker. We'd aim to sit down for lunch by around 13:30. It is all very informal and an opportunity to clear the cobwebs after the winter hibernation. Be aware of parking restrictions at POG; it is the final day of the Spring Launch. If there is no space on the grass, you may need to park on the other side of the bridge: a four-hour limit applies in RCY. If you are overnighting, contact liftmanager@pog-cssa.co.uk who will probably be able to find a space within the yard. If you intend to come, let me know at chrisjblackman@yahoo.co.uk so that I can give the caterers some idea of numbers.
