Three Bridges Muster
The cruising fleet are invited to sail to the newly restored ancient pier at Culross. We have been advised that over the last 15 years a lot of work has been done to restore the ancient pier at Culross. This included removal of a large amount of stone surrounding the pier and adding marker posts to the end of the pier and to Ailie Rocks that lie to the east. Note that there is 1m greater depth on the west face of the pier.
HW Rosyth on Saturday 12th July is 17.00; and as the drying height to the west side of the pier of 3 meters - so +/- 1 hour either side of HW to land is reasonable. Hence, the plan is to meet in the clubhouse about 13:00, leave Port Edgar circa 14.00, sail the 8.5nm upriver and meet at Culross. With limited space, rafting on the west side / end is proposed. All yachts to be away by 17.30 leaving a couple of hours to get back to Port Edgar in time for the Barbeque.
Barbeque
The barbeque will be lit as cruisers and racers get back to the marina. Buy tickets on the day. The bar will then be open.
