Passage Planning
Skippers of individual vessels will (as normal) be entirely responsible for their passage planning and safety of their vessel and crew for the whole event. Guidance and options will be indicated by the event organiser who will conduct a “Skippers Briefing” on Friday 8th May at 1800 at the Clubhouse. At this stage the event organiser’s outline passage plan (weather dependant) is as follows:
Thursday 11th June: Proceed from Plymouth to Salcombe (pm) with the flood tide. Moor in Salcombe Harbour or Starehole Bay. Early to bed.
Friday 12th June: Slip mooring at 0200, exit Salcombe and proceed to Guernsey, approaching St Peter Port from South. 16 hour passage (3.5 hours night), avoiding TSZ. ETA SPP 1800.
For other boats also departing from Salcombe at around this time, the passage could be conducted in a “cruise in company” /“dispersed flotilla” format.

This is not a ticketed events and a WhatsApp group will be set up for interested skippers and crew.
I wish boat skippers , and potential crew members to register with
1. Name of skipper and mobile contact number.
2. Name of boat, and draught and length in metres.
3. Whether they need crew for the event.
4 Names of individuals wishing to act as crew for the event, with mobile numbers.
Thank you
Gareth

The Royal Plymouth Corinthian Yacht Club is pleased to invite members to a relaxed club meet on the beautiful Helford River over the weekend of 24th–26th July 2026.

Members are invited to bring their own food, disposable BBQs, and drinks for an informal gathering by the water.
We have also coordinated with the Harbour Master to reserve a number of swinging moorings for visiting boats. To secure these, we will need confirmed numbers no later than 10 days prior to the event.
Additionally, the Helford River Sailing Club have kindly arranged pontoon access and have given us permission to come ashore and enjoy food and refreshments at their clubhouse, as well as use of their facilities, including showers and toilets, during the weekend.

30.1ft – 35ft: £27
