Yachts Cruise to Mercury Marina, Hamble

For the second year we are planning to return to Mercury Yacht Harbour (MDL) in the Hamble. A delightful setting, not used much by CYC, up river and quieter than Port Hamble with the benefit of a restaurant, The Waters Edge, a few steps from the pontoons with a great view over the water.
Chichester HW Saturday is c12.10 which will allow plenty of time to arrive at Hamble before LW c17 30.
Chichester HW is c12.40 on Sunday so an early start is recommended if you want the benefit of the flood tide back to West Pole.
Pontoon party as usual at 6pm on the terrace overlooking the marina.
As Hamble village is at least a 20 minute walk away then eating is probably either on board or at the Waters Edge Restaurant. The restaurant appears popular with other clubs and non sailors alike: all food we are told is home cooked!!!
We have not reserved any tables as they will require a deposit but hopefully there will be room for any that want to eat there. Please indicate whether you would like to eat there and nearer the time we can find out whether they are likely to fit us all in.
Briefing in the Clubhouse 9.00 Friday 20th May- please let us know if you cannot attend.
We hope that you will join us for a sunny weekend in May!!
