Yachts: Winter Woolies Cruise

As the Winter Woolies is almost a full week later than it has been in the previous two years, I am very optimistic that it will NOT be cancelled due to weather this year. Berths are already provisionally booked at the Cowes Yacht Haven for Saturday night. High Tide at Chi Harbour Entrance is a civilised 11.17 & 4.77m on Saturday which should mean an afternoon sail with the tide for many of us, with a pontoon party in the late afternoon; & a group dinner in the evening – external factors permitting. On Sunday, a relaxed morning start should allow most boats to get home soon after high tide. More details, including a Friday evening briefing confirmed, will be much nearer the time.
