Great news! We have been speaking to the wonderful people at Mylor and have set some dates for the 2021 Raid.
Dates as follows:
Check in/launch Monday 7th June 2021
Sailing Tues – Thurs
Recover.depart Friday 11th June 2021
We will be offering the same catering options as last year, ie packed lunches and evening meals at Castaways come with the sailing package, and you can opt to have breakfast there also.
Windsport will be available for camping and camper vans.
Cost to be confirmed as we have to discuss rates with the harbour and the restaurant but we never make a profit, we just cover costs, and we will always endeavour to keep the cost as low as possible and keep any annual increases negligible.
We have given first refusal to people who had booked for the cancelled 2020 Raid so available places are more limited than usual. So please be quick if you’d like to come and email events@swallowyachts.com to book your space, and please include the number of crew (including skipper).
Of course we do have to mention that if things don’t relax considerably then we won’t be able to run the Raid this year and will have to cancel it again – that’s the last thing we want but we do have to keep everyone safe! Therefore we will be delaying asking for deposits until Easter at the earliest.
A particular point we would like to raise is that Castaways is fairly “cosy” and we will be sat close together for our evening meal. We won’t be offering non-dining spaces so please do consider this when you are deciding whether you wish to attend the Raid.
We look forward to hearing from you and wish you all a great 2021
Good Morning. I have just read the PBO article on the Bayraider Expedition and that prompted me to look at your website. I have to own up to not being a potential customer as I already have two boats! However I also noted your plan for your Mylor event in June, fingers crossed.
Both my boats are on moorings in Falmouth harbour and one is an old oyster smack built in 1901. Gaff cutter rigged and weighing 10 tons, Wanderer has quite an interesting history. Would you consider swopping day sails in the Carrick Roads as an interesting contrast between old and new….it’s always good to make new friends!!
Regards Dave Caddy.
