Devon

 

 

  Welcome to Devon!

 

Here in Devon we have some of the most beautiful clear water cruising  in the South West with many creeks and areas of sheltered open water all waiting to be explored.  If you seek adventurous sea sailing or just want to potter, all options are within easy reach.

 

  I am lucky to have Salcombe as my home port , but as the Region extends from the Exe including Dartmouth , Salcombe , Newton Ferrers and Plymouth - geographicaly it is a long area of coastline with many self contained sailing areas.

 

 

Next year will be my second season as Hon Sec of the Devon Area and my third season of Shrimper ownership . I am still learning the ropes but have had a lot of fun and lots of learning curves . I am absoulutely hooked on the pretty well mannered little yacht that is so forgiving for the slightly creaky grandparent and extremely safe for a gaggle of grandchildren to learn to sail!

 

 

 As regards future fixtures, we will once again be meeting for a preseason lunch in March ( see events page) which will give us the opportunity to add different events to our programe.

 

We will try to co-ordinate the different areas within our region.

 

   In the meantime if you would like to join us for local Shrimper rallies or assist with arranging events in your area, please contact me.
