Cruising Adventure – Wherever the wind takes us!
Our Cruising Group will set sail 13th - 15th September; âWherever the wind takes usâ long weekend cruise.
Due to the unpredictable winds we have been getting over the last couple of seasons, we are suggesting a final cruise of the season without actually specifying a destination.
We will simply look at the forecast a few days beforehand and agree a favourable destination.
Please complete the âExpression of Interestâ if you wish to join us.
