Plymouth Raid V2<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Dates: \u00a014 August – 18 August 2017<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

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

If most of the programme looks familiar that is because it is based on the original 2015 English Raid which had to be changed due to the unusual strong Easterly winds that prevailed at the time.<\/p>\n

The Raid is taking place in school holidays in order to help those Raiders who have children (or Grandchildren) still at school.<\/p>\n

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

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

Plug-in facilities for camper vans are available but these will be on a first-come, first-served basis, although there are more plug-points than in 2015. \u00a0All 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

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

The exact programme needs to remain as flexible as possible and will depend on tidal and weather conditions.\u00a0 Thus, apart from Monday and Thursday evening\/Friday morning, everything is fluid.<\/p>\n

There are very few camping facilities nearby, although plenty of B&Bs and rental properties.<\/p>\n

In addition the cost of room-based accommodation in the Mountbatten Centre (including breakfast) is \u00a3110 per person (Monday evening to Friday morning). \u00a0Please note that you may end up sharing a room with crew from another boat as there are only 26 rooms in the Centre.<\/p>\n

To book your place on the Raid please go to\u00a0<\/a>Register\u00a02017<\/a><\/span>\u00a0 and complete the form and send it to us. \u00a0 A booking deposit of \u00a375 per boat will secure your place.<\/p>\n

402410 61420933 and Raid England are the details you will need if making a BACS transfer.<\/p>\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. \u00a0I have recently been using a system called Transferwise (https:\/\/transferwise.com) very successfully with much better exchange rates than most banks but contact me first to discuss the best way of paying. \u00a0If 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 ( although I believe it is free for you if within the EC)<\/p>\n
