Any idea of the depth of water at the outer start mark at HW.
Will get a new marker ready for Sunday

Yes. It's 6m + 5m = 11m.

If somebody went out today or tomorrow at low water they could get the existing one untangled. Job for two strong people.

Don't think there to many strong people in the Club anymore! we are all getting older and older.

If there is a couple of you that want to attempt a rescue at low water please feel free.

Will make up another buoy just incase, or we will use the pillar buoy for Sunday.

Obviously the line is too long at that position, a length will need removing.
