Dates:  19 August – 23 August 2024<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Plymouth Raid V3 <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Raid will be based at the Mountbatten Water Sports and Activities Centre in Plymouth as in 2017 and 2015.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Raid is taking place in school holidays in order to help those Raiders who have children (or Grandchildren) still at school. It is also the only dates that were available <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have booked all of the bedrooms as accommodation for the Raid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cars and trailers can be parked at the Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are spaces for up to 8 camper vans. Plug-in facilities for camper vans are available.  All Camper Van users will have 24-hour access to the Centre for showers and WC included within their charge. There are very few camping facilities nearby, although plenty of B&Bs and rental properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The boats will be launched, moored and recovered at Mountbatten Centre (MC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exact programme needs to remain as flexible as possible and will depend on tidal and weather conditions.  Thus, apart from Monday and Thursday evening\/Friday morning, everything is fluid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

402410 61420933 and Raid England are the details you will need if using online banking <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are making an overseas transfer you will need to know that HSBC is the bank and that Market Place, Henley-on-Thames, UK is the address together with some or all of the below.  I have recently been using a system called Wise (https:\/\/wise.com<\/a>) very successfully with much better exchange rates than most banks but contact me first to discuss the best way of paying.  If you insist upon using a traditional bank please can you “pay” the transfer fees as well because UK banks charge us a lot for accepting money from outside the UK. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
