How sheltered is that anchorage with a south westerly blowing? What are the facilities like in a certain marina? Are the pontoons open to the public or is access by key? Are there any other security issues And my personal interest - Do they have wireless internet so I can run this website from my yacht? Oh and my other interest as well please - How far away is that decent pint of beer?
