As I am planning to be there on Friday...

Can anyone tell me what the slip is like ?? does it have a pontoon next to it ??

Can we get drinking water ???

Is there anywhere to get petrol ?? or where is the latest place we can get some with the boat in tow ??

What are the roads like around there ???

Any shops ???

What time will the other boats be leaving Bucklers Hard on Friday ??

Sorry for so many questions....

There is a wide slip from the boat park. There is a pontoon at 90 to the slip. You can see this on the picture I posted for you on 1st May on the 'Round the Island..' topic

There is a tap at the Harbormasters Office. There is a new wash area in the boat park so I assume the tap there also supplies fresh water.

Yes - from the fueling pontoon. You will see this from the boat park, also the Harbourmasters Office which you should report to on arrival.

Any shops ???

No. There is a cafe that sells a few provisions but I would come stocked.

Can't answer that. I suggest you e-mail those who have said they will be launching from Bucklers Hard (James Hamilton is one. Click on 'members' and send him an e-mail.)
