ROGER’S PLUMS. TOM’S NUTS. NOW RICHARD’S BLOWTORCH
Thanks to Richard Butler for helping me repair the pontoon. One of the metal connections holding a pontoon had sheared off but that has now been replaced thanks to some on-the-spot welding.

Port Navas, alongside Constantine and Mawnan Smith, have put together a Volunteers List to provide assistance to PN residents who might need help. If you need help yourself details are on the Port Navas website: portnavas.com/ and for Constantine: constantinecornwall.com/
I promised to let you all know what Alex and Patrizia are doing next. They are moving across the river but only ten minutes away by boat as they take over the stewardship of The Helford River Sailing Club. They are starting on the 1st February but please look at the HRSC website for more details – helfordriversc.co.uk…
The Club dinghy is finally back on station after a well needed overhaul by Duncan Skingley from Gweek Boatyard (call Duncan on 07817 875706 if you need any boat work). At the suggestion of our children, she is to be renamed The UG – a nickname they had for Uncle Giles.

The buoys have all been serviced and the beach moorings are ready for use. The mens loo and shower room have been rather drastically de-constructed to allow us to completely refurbish them. The ladies loo will become unisex during the work so remember to lock the door to avoid any surprises!
In very good condition. Repainted this year. New stainless keel strips. New custom fit cover. Raymarine Chartplotter and Fishfinder included. Marine VHF included. All fenders and other accessories including rear seats included. Regularly serviced by Robin Curnow. A perfect boat for The Helford. If sold to a member, the mooring on the pontoon at PNYC would be available….
