Looe Luggers 2017
Once again the Bi-annual Looe Lugger regatta is upon us, this event is commencing on Friday the 9th of June 2017. As in past years the Happy Return will be attending the regatta departing Penzance on
Thursday the 8th at 8:00am. It is planed to overnight at some convenient anchorage en-rooted on the Thursday night arriving at Looe prior to high tide on the Friday evening. (high tide is 18:31 on Friday)
Happy Return will be moored with many of the other traditional craft along side the quay in West Looe on the Friday and Saturday Nights, probably departing on the Sunday evening for Polperro if the forecast permits or some other such port of call. During the regatta on the Saturday and Sunday the Luggers will depart the quay in West Looe daily, leaving on the morning falling tide and return again on the rising evening tide.
This event is open to all members of the MBLA regardless of experience and maybe attended as either a one day event or for the whole weekend. This includes the passage to Looe or the return to Penzance. Looe is at the end of the Branch line from Liskeard so may be reached by rail for anyone wishing to sail during the regatta, or you can just drive if you wish. If you would like to sail on any part of this event please call Mark on either 01736-333224 or mobile 07766913836. All are welcome and we still have space for you, so don't delay call or email today.
