Yachts : Cruise to Marchwood

The cruise is to Marchwood Sailing Club at the head of Southampton Water. It is a small, owner run club that has always given us a great night as we dine together. The cruise includes seeing the delightful Netley Abbey, cruise liner spotting at Southampton docks and being close up to the huge container ships at the container terminal. Berthing involves rafting up on walk ashore pontoons that have no shore power. A pontoon party will be held followed by dinner in the clubhouse.
The briefing will be at 21:00 on Friday eve at CYC. Lock bound boats will need to be on their way to Marchwood as soon as the rising tide lets them out, the low being at 07:00. Departure on Sunday will be required in time to arrive in Chi Harbour on the rising tide, HW being at 14:50.
