Around Caldey Row
May 7^th, 2017 at 5:01pm

From Wiseman’s around Caldey Row
Please see attachment for distances.
The best plan would be to go through Caldey Sound on the ebb tide about an hour before slack, giving a favourable tide most of the way.
We would need calm conditions and so would have to call it according to the weather and tides.
Please post if you would be interested and say whether you could do a weekday or only weekends.
It seems like the attachment did not work.
It is 13.3 nautical miles (15.7 statute miles), by the most direct route. The distance will increase by going round the bays, following the north coast of Caldey back to South Beach (+0.6miles) or calling at Dennis café (good idea).

Jake Ex Member	Re: Around Caldey Row Reply #5 - May 7^th, 2017 at 9:17pm Sounds good to me. A Sunday would work best for me, but with a bit of notice I could make a weekday or Saturday instead.

Also Thank you for spending time sorting these alternative rows out Jim, it keeps everyone excited and wanting more. We could also arrange a landing party on Caldy again like in 2013.

It seems like most people so far would prefer a weekend and Caroline has warned me that she will change the locks if I do this without her again. Maybe we could do it more than once so that strong rowers like Simon and Ellen can both enjoy it. Bunty would like to come along as a passenger/bit part rower. Let’s get as many people on board as possible. A Caldey landing would be great, it was brilliant the last time and it would be a great alternative to Dennis Café.
Watch for a weather window:
Possible dates and approximate times to depart Wisemans beach are:
Sat 13th May 12.00; Sun 14th May 12.45
Sat 27th May 11.45; Sun 28th May 12.45
Sun 4th June 07.00
Sat 10th June 11.30; Sun 11 June 12.00
Sat 24th June 11.00; Sun 25th June 11.40
Sat 8th July 10.30; Sun 9th July 11.00
Sat 22nd July 09.45; Sun 23rd July 10.40
and August
I am aware that Sundays may clash with race days.
