in our old haunt, New Grimsby Sound. Lorraine really enjoys the famous Tresco Gardens, so we paid a visit. The weather at this point was really hot and having started off in the rain we were now reaping the rewards of our perseverance. By now, the wind was favourable for Padstow which we could just about make in daylight if we left at first light, so at six in the morning we headed out of New Grimsby. As we set sail though, the wind wasn’t quite as favourable as we had hoped so we had to sail north first and then tack. My plan was to pick up the current at Land’s End as it turned northwards to carry us all the way to Padstow, which we achieved, but by now we were an hour or so late as the wind had died. I was still hopeful, (not we!), that we could still make Padstow on time. It was looking good until we hit Trevose Head, just a few miles short. Boy, did the current turn! With no wind our progress was reduced to snail’s pace, so we started looking for an anchorage for the night. This coast is not ideal in north easterly winds and by early evening, we ended up in the River Camel and despite the swell, we dropped the hook. Careful tidal calculations had to be made Continues on next page www.nwcc.info Members’ reports on cruises / 51 Tresco Gardens ‘Free Will’ in Padstow
because an awful lot of the Camel dries out. We did find a deep spot though and settled down for a rather uncomfortable night. At first light we weighed anchor and made our way up to Padstow on the rising tide. The harbourmaster was super helpful and we were soon moored up next to bars and shops. Our time spent in Padstow coincided with the summer heatwave. We took pleasure in a short walk up the coast to the beach and enjoyed refreshing dips in the sea and we were moored right next to a pop up bar selling craft ciders and beers which went down well with pasties in the evenings! Eventually we headed back for Dale, and it was just as well we had refuelled in Padstow as, (and this has got to be a first for me), the Bristol Channel was flat calm. We arrived in daylight and set our anchor near the pontoon. By now Nelson was thoroughly enjoying dinghy rides and the longish trip ashore was accompanied by excited barking all the way. From there we enjoyed a bus ride to Milford Haven and restocked at Tesco. We also enjoyed walks along the peninsula and over an excellent meat platter at “The Griffin” (which was considerably cheaper than Tresco) I speculated that we could get through Jack Sound with the last of the north going tide and just about make Ramsey Sound before the south going tide started. Let’s give it a go! All went well until we were virtually through Ramsey Sound when the spring tide turned. We crawled past St David’s Head at full throttle and thankfully the new exhaust elbow paid dividends as the engine showed no sign of overheating at all. We elected to find somewhere to anchor till the tide turned, and Lorraine scoured the pilot book and suggested Abercastle. A study of the charts revealed many offshore rocks so we couldn’t hug the shore to avoid the current but we still made it and as Lorraine made dinner I took Nelson ashore. There was a bit of swell and although Abercastle was pretty it wasn’t the most comfortable anchorage so after dinner, when the tide turned, we continued to Fishguard and dropped anchor in Goodwick, amongst the small craft moorings. We woke up to quite strong northerly winds with the plan for Aberystwyth as the next stop. We lifted the anchor and put our nose into the wind. Hmmm perhaps not. Plan B, then, was to dry out against the wall in the picturesque Lower Harbour. After arranging permission and with the help of the harbourmaster, who needed a bit of reassurance that a fin keeler could dry out against the wall, we tied up. We’d been doing it for years in Conwy and all the practice paid off as we dried out perfectly. Northerly winds were forecast for a few days so Lorraine suggested that, as we were going nowhere by sea, she used our bus pass to take Nelson home, so that we could sail for longer, potentially in rougher weather. This she did. Now that we could make it to Porth Dinllaen in one hop, we needed to make a low water early start so this meant anchoring in the bay for the night. The sun was setting as we left the wall but we just about got ourselves anchored before it went dark. The days were getting appreciably shorter. For the passage to Porth Dinllaen, the critical part was to have the current with us up the Llyn Peninsula, therefore we had start against the tide 52 / Members’ reports on cruises www.nwcc.info
www.nwcc.info Members’ reports on cruises / 53 across Cardigan Bay. We also had to avoid the A fine spread Aberporth firing range but that wasn’t much of a detour. This leg turned out to be our best sail of the holiday with brisk westerly winds driving us northwards. At 2pm we flew past Bardsey, eight hours after we’d set off, and we caught the Llyn on the flood, employed the goose-winged technique and a couple of hours later we were anchored in Porth Dinllaen and settling down for the evening. The following day was blowing hard and the pilot book advised against going over the bar in those conditions and it was also too windy to go ashore which was a bit annoying. Just as well we didn’t have Nelson with us. Next morning the winds turned northerly and despite being less than ten knots we rolled around mercilessly, so we headed for Conwy. We sailed the light winds up the Llyn until the wind died and crossed the bar under power at HW plus three and rode the tide all the way to Conwy for an afternoon high water arrival. We had had a great trip but boy did the price of diesel cost us. However, on the upside we did enjoy some glorious sunshine. It was also great fun to meet up with other sailors from the NWCC and from the New Quay Sailing Club while in Fishguard. This summer we are planning to take a post covid trip to the Pacific Ocean and the Rockies but not on ‘Free Will’ ! However, we hope to fit a short two week cruise after the River Festival, come and join us. Nelson checking the lines
54 / On the water (power) www.nwcc.info Motorboating “The engine drives great wheels on either side, sir, like those of a watermill,” said Broke. “A precious awkward thing to meet with in a calm or in a narrow tideway, since she can sail, not only against wind and tide, but without any wind at all.” “With one long twenty-four pounder in the bows, such a machine could cut you up quite shockingly,” said Jack. “I mean in light airs or a calm”. Excerpt from “The Fortune of War” Reprinted by permission of Harper Collins Publishers Ltd © Patrick O’Brian 1979. A lot has happened in the past two hundred years, from the early days of steam driven paddle wheels through to today’s multivarious forms of propulsion. Even a self-proclaimed dyed in the wool sailor like I, (motor boaters might say luddite), has to admit to a few occasions when I have cast a wistful eye at a motorboat speeding on its way home as we shelter in wet weather gear from the downpour. North Wales Cruising Club is emphatically not an exclusive sailing boat owners club. Indeed we wish to attract and encourage as many owners of internally powered vessels to join its hallowed ranks as possible, see below. Conwy and its surrounding cruising grounds are extremely attractive places to potter about in boats, but they are certainly not for the faint hearted. With expansive tidal ranges and speedy tidal streams, towering sandbanks and cunning rocks that only reveal themselves at low water, Our Motorboating Secretary (currently vacant)
www.nwcc.info On the water (power) / 55 these seas present the average boat skipper with plenty of navigational problems to solve which apply equally to power and sailing boats. The tidal streams around our headlands, for example at Bardsey or South Stack may not dent a power boat’s ground speed if caught at the wrong time as much as a sailor’s, but they certainly increase fuel consumption and can kick up steep seas. In summary, the workload for a simple day’s boating can be immense. However, all these potential nautical nerve shredders can be mitigated by navigating in company. The benefits of sharing experience and knowledge, as well as preparation are bounteous. Picture the scenario. The sailors amongst us plan a weekend’s trip to Carnarvon. The tides at Conwy translate to an early morning departure to be at the “Swellies” as close to slack water as possible. One knows from experience that it is nigh on impossible to achieve that going at 6knots. But at 20knots, the motor boater can enjoy a leisurely breakfast, head down the river against a slacker tide pass the Swellies precisely at slack water, head on down the Strait to Abermenai for a spot of elevenses and still form the welcoming committee at Carnarvon, having bagged the best berths by Fu’s/pub/showers*. What does it matter if there’s a spot of rain in the air, or the wind is “on the nose?” Not one jot, in fact. It simply means you turn the windscreen wipers on while sipping your tea in the warmth and comfort of your cabin. Even if it cuts up a bit rough, and you happen to be the owner of an all-weather powerboat, such as a Nordstar, then you can cut short your time at sea and head home quickly. It is the nautical equivalent of packing up your picnic before the pork pie gets soggy. Sailing boats sadly don’t have that extra gear, despite naval architects over the years trying to come up with a design that could do that. (See below). All this means is that the motoring arm of the club can arrange more far-flung destinations in the same amount of time and do so on the occasional day when the weather is marginally less than clement. So come all ye power boaters and swell the ranks of our motorboating squadron. *Delete as appropriate.

Hello! My name is Tabitha and I am twelve. 2022 brought my first taste of sailing and, so far, I have loved every second on the open sea. The first long trip I went on was to the Isle of Man with NWCC in May 2022. On 28th May we set off! With our newly replaced nav panel in, we took the long, 14-hour journey to Port St Mary with the other sailors in the group. A lot of the crew felt quite ill but after a seasickness tablet each and a round of ginger biscuits and cake, we were all perfectly chipper. Mummy and Daddy (Lydia and David) took turns helming and Floss and I took part in-between. We arrived at our destination around 11.30pm. It was pitch black with a strong headwind and it being our first time, it took quite a while to secure to the mooring buoy. But eventually we had ‘Troppo Bella’ secure and, feeling a little peckish, we soothed our hunger with a midnight bowl of cereal. We had been the last boat into Port St. Mary, so not to be left behind we left early the next day. But we probably left too early and had we left a little later, it would have been calm. But the overfalls between Port St. Mary and Douglas, were fairly vicious when we got there and it was a very bumpy ride which made steering difficult. But after a wild ride we sped past and into Douglas. We spent the next couple of days exploring Douglas and then set off back to Port St. Mary in preparation for going through Calf Sound and all the way up to Peel. Peel was charming and we spent a couple of days there exploring, enjoying a BBQ on a shell-strewn beach with the other NWCC members and eating fish and chips! Then it was to Port Erin, which was a delightful little place, and we stayed there the night before a short hop back through the Sound to Port St. Mary. From there we departed, next day, on the 14 hour journey back to Conwy Marina. I really enjoyed that trip and can’t wait to go back to the Isle of Man and I look forward to more sailing adventures like that one soon.

She mumbled beneath her breath as I drove us to the jetty. When the tender arrived, she stared hard at it. ‘A boat?’ ‘Yes.’ ‘We’re going in a small boat? A small boat with an outdoor engine?’ ‘It’s called an outboard engine, but yes.’ ‘Oh, God, please tell me we aren’t going fishing. I had a boyfriend who took me fishing once. I hated it.’ ‘We are not going fishing,’ I reassured her. We clambered into the boat, and granite-faced Marco helped me load the food and clothes we had packed. ‘You know I’m not awake yet?’ ‘I’d guessed.’ ‘But I’m awake enough for you to tell me why we’re motorboating along the open seas at 5am.’ ‘It’s so much later than 5am. And we’re not really on the open seas.’ ‘You’re very good at not giving answers.’ ‘OK, I’ll tell you. Do you see those boats there?’ ‘The ones we’re heading for?’ ‘Those would be the ones.’ ‘Yes,’ she said. ‘I see them.’ ‘We’re going there.’ ‘You’re infuriating.’ ‘And fun.’ ‘Yes. You’re infuriatingly fun. Why are we doing this?’ ‘We’re going on a boat trip.’ ‘We’re already on a boat trip.’ ‘We’re going on a bigger boat.’ ‘Oh.’ Marco throttled back as we approached Musa’s stern. He held the tender against the rear platform. I stepped out and offered her my hand. She took my hand and climbed out beside me. Marco passed the boxes which I lifted over the stern guardrail into the cockpit. As we stood in the cockpit, I put my arm around her to steady us, or so I told myself, as we watched Marco putter back to shore. I nuzzled her shoulder, then said ‘Let’s get going. I want to be moored up by teatime.’ ‘Where are we going?’ ‘Paranabi.’ ‘Where?’ Tempest Continues on next page
60 / New member profiles www.nwcc.info ‘It’s an island south of here, near São Paulo. Sort of.’ ‘Why are we going there when we could still be asleep?’ ‘Let’s get underway, and then we can talk.’ She looked about the cockpit for a moment while I unlocked the hatch into the galley. ‘What do you want me to do?’ ‘Have you sailed before?’ ‘No.’ ‘Can you swim?’ ‘Not to your standard.’ ‘I suggest you put a lifejacket on for now. They are under the navigation table seat.’ She stepped through the hatch and reverseclimbed down the steps. I went forward, unhitched us from the mooring. Back in the cockpit I unfurled the foresail just enough to put a little wind behind the boat and start to move us under power. A few minutes later, we were under full canvas and making a steady six knots. I set the autopilot and slid down into the galley; Charlie was tying on a lifejacket. ‘Is this yours?’ she gestured around the cabin. ‘Yes. Is this all right? Are you going to get seasick on me?’ ‘This boat?’ ‘Yacht,’ I said patiently. ‘This yacht is yours?’ ‘She is.’ ‘Are you a good sailor?’ ‘Are you nervous?’ ‘A little.’ ‘In that case I’m the best singlehanded sailor you have ever met.’ ‘You might be the only singlehanded sailor I have ever met.’ ‘I like that I appear on such an exclusive list then.’ Three hours later, we were well on our way. I sat in the cockpit, one hand on the tiller; she reclined against me. We talked quietly over the gentle swish of water as it passed beneath the hull. Just being close to each other was relaxing; light chat, occasional sips of wine, and basking beneath the sun as it beat down from the clear blue sky. When she went below to refresh our glasses, I picked up my phone and keyed in a number. Thousands of miles away, in the north of Brazil, the two Claymore anti-personnel mines detonated around the base of the communications station’s cooling pipes. It wasn’t a killer blow. When their monitoring systems identified the problem, the few onsite and the many remote staff would fight the rising temperature; they would shut down some non-critical systems, and the facility would stay operational. But my target would see this as another attack on his empire, and he would take it personally, especially after the photograph of his son and the rifle shot from the bridge. He was going to be furious when he got the news, and he was going to send a security specialist to review the communication station. I put the phone away as she came up from the galley, and we continued spending quality time together.
www.nwcc.info Register / 61 It was with great sadness that I received news of Alex’s sudden passing. The only consolation is that he’d had a great day on the river Conwy, testing power boats for Powerboat and Rib magazine. Working with Alex was an absolute joy and I was always a good anchor point onboard to stop Alex going overboard and, of course, to catch the solid water from his high-speed passes! Over the years we had so much fun taking photos and writing about boats. It certainly was an interesting adventure together, doing what we loved; off filming the coastline on the trusty Bayliner, then back to Deganwy marina for a tipple and tv dinner on the back deck and with Alex always ready with a drink for anybody passing, it became the social hub of the marina, accompanied by the sounds of Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. Alex was in fact a very good guitarist and he even set up a mobile music studio onboard his Bayliner 245, it was fantastic on those quiet winter nights. Also fantastic were our radiocontrolled yacht races in the marina. Alex lost when his yacht sank on its first race, much to the amusement of the onlookers! Alex will be sadly missed but his memory will live on through his photography and magazine articles. We worked hard but played hard. RIP dear friend and colleague. Miss you so much, buddy.

Conwy Quays Marina is located on the South side of the Harbour near the entrance. Deganwy Marina is on the North side of the Harbour a mile upstream of the entrance. Despite rumours to the contrary, it is fairly easy to enter the river: Approaching Conwy from seaward, the landfall mark is the Fairway Buoy, spherical white with vertical red stripes. From the Fairway, steer 095T to the centre of the channel between C1 and C2 then follow the channel towards the Perch light. The channel buoys are paired except for C2A, C4, C16 and C12A. All channel buoys are fitted with radar reflectors and lights. Pass the Perch, leaving it 30m to starboard and continue past C11 buoy until the bridge is “half-open” before turning into the harbour and heading towards the Beacons Jetty; continue to follow the buoyed channel. The main channel runs down the starboard side of the river and passes between the two sections of the pontoon, as far as the town quay. Please note the following: Until familiar with the channel, access is recommended only in daylight and between HW-3 and HW+2. If Conwy Sands are covered, there is enough water in the channel for boats drawing 1.8 m (6 ft) to enter. Beware the strong tidal stream in the narrows at Deganwy. Within the Harbour beware of unlit mooring buoys which may be semi-submerged in the tide.
