If you want to arrive early and wait for tide you can anchor by the entrance although holding not brilliant, or anchor on the left inside the entrance or pick up an empty buoy

We normally move everyone onto the quay, normally up to 9 boats rafted some afloat some on the bottom 

See pilotage notes

We can of course use the KYC for drinks however, Unfortunately the hospitality manager is leaving on 14th Sept,  so they are sorting out the kitchen and training new people so no food I am afraid, but as in previous years they are more than happy for us to use thier gas barbeques (bearing in mind the recent fires these will carefully controlled)

I normally pay en-block to get the discount then chase for money from everyone (Bill Peach)

The PSSA is the class association for Parker and Seal lift keel yachts and other types of shallow draft yachts.
As an active, friendly club with almost 350 members, it organises rallies, social events and an annual race around the Isle of Wight.
Seals and Parkers are British-built yachts, ranging in length from 21' to 33', mostly with lifting keels. They started with the Seal 22 in 1970, built by John Baker, and followed by the Seal 28 and Super Seal 26. In 1981, Bill Parker took over the range and added the Parker 21, Parker 27 and Parker 31. These then evolved into a high-quality range of cruiser-racers built by Parker Lift-Keel Yachts - the trailable Parker 235, the Parker 285 and the Parker 335. In 2009, Parker Lift-Keel yachts ceased trading.
