Hi Nick - that's an amazing and almost unbelievable co incidence! Following some contacts made by Mike Bradley (HCGB member) last year with the Beach Co ordinator, local Harbour Master, and other members of the local council, a few of us went there earlier this year to show them our hovercraft in operation with a view to arranging a hover event later in the year. On the 2nd and 3rd April they invited us back to do a larger scale recce of the area to put together some prospective routes and so on. You've obviously been there before, as have many others, and its a public beach, but we felt reaching out to the local authorities was the right thing to do. They have been very receptive and welcoming, given certain caveats, particularly if we intended to make an organised event of it. Get in touch if you'd like to know more about what we've discussed with the authorities. kind regards, Rob
