Yachts: RC’s Cruise to the Channel Islands

Following on from the Cross Channel race, we really are hoping that the RC’s Spring Cruise will be to the Channel Islands this year! But westwards in the UK remains a fall-back option. The dates won’t change, though.

This cruise follows on from after the Cross-Channel Race / Cruise and will be a week-long cruise to ports on the west side of the Cherbourg peninsular and to the Channel Islands. We would like to visit a selection of places from: Guernsey, Jersey, Alderney and possibly Dielette, or Carteret, subject to wind and weather. After a “rest-day” on Thursday, we plan to leave Cherbourg on Friday 3rd June, so hope you will also book onto the Cross-Channel race/cruise to get you there. If you prefer, you can make your own arrangements to join the Cruise in Cherbourg.

We plan to finish at Braye harbour on Alderney on Saturday 11th June to allow people the options of sailing back to the UK by Sunday, or opting to go cruising further along the French coast; or head for the West Country.

The main cruise briefing will be held in conjunction with the Cross-Channel race on the weekend before departure, and further briefings held during the cruise.
